Standards of Collegiality and Collaboration
Successful supervision: 3.1 Creates and sustains a learning community that supports teachers as both learners and leaders 3.2 Reduces isolation by encouraging teachers and other school personnel to collaborate by engaging in critical discussions about instructional practices that transcend individual classrooms 3.3 Promotes a culture of cooperative work and risk taking among teachers 3.4 Promotes a “can do” attitude and a safety net as teachers face uncertainties associated with high stakes learning and work environments 3.5 Pays attention to affective domains including developing professional relationships, promoting openness to individual and collective improvement, and caring for teachers by nurturing relational trust, respect, personal regard, and integrity 3.6 Provides momentum for the development of differentiated forms of supervision (e.g., action research, portfolio development, peer coaching) in which teachers are the major actors setting the course for expanded learning opportunities
