The first edition of this book was highly regarded by both professors and students for its practicality and its: (1) coverage of tools & strategies to help supervisors work effectively with teachers; (2) up-to-date approach to clinical supervision which includes teacher portfolios, action research, peer coaching, and other innovative practices; and (3) authentic case studies, classroom examples, field experiences, prompts for reflection, and pragmatic tips. The second edition retains all of these features and goes further by offering: (4) a comprehensive collection of classroom observation tools; (5) a new chapter on confronting marginal teaching; (6) expanded coverage of professional development and its link to teacher evaluation; and (7) extended ELCC-based self-assessment activities for students to help them master the entire cycle of clinical supervision and the development of professional growth plans.
