| Summary: | This collection of 65 articles related to the profession of educational supervision is intended primarily for use with students in teacher education. Represented in the single volume are articles from a decade of writing (1960-69) by leaders in the "emerging profession" of supervision. The essays, which cover a wide range of subjects in their attempt to "analyze current needs and to project sound proposals for meeting them in the perspective of the future," fall into five major sections: "Leadership: Talent for Growth"; "Issues in Professionalization"; "Research: Instrument for New Knowledge"; "The Supervisor at Work"; "Supervision: Its Potential." In his introduction to the collection, Fred T. Wilhelms stresses that in the midst of the great ferment and growth of the last decade--both of which are reflected in the content of this book--one thing is certain: "the need for organized leadership, always great, is going to increase. The forms will change; the structure of staff organization will change; the nature and extent of participation by teachers and others will change. But the need for trained, dedicated leaders will not change--except to grow." This book is intended to help meet that need. (Author/ES) |
