The Instructional Supervisor as a Cultural Guide.
Waite, Duncan
Urban Education, v26 n4 p423-40 Jan 1992
Anthropologically informed examination of instructional supervisors and supervision could reveal functions beyond counseling, teaching, and training. A literature review highlights a cultural dimension of supervision. An ethnography of supervision would elucidate the roles of supervisors just as training supervisors in ethnography could help them perceive cultural aspects of schooling. (SLD)
