Snapshots of Instructional Supervision: Reflections of Scholars in the Field (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798986080055)

This monograph, Snapshots of Instructional Supervision: Reflections of Scholars in the Field, is a collection of think pieces that raise issues ranging from Artificial Intelligence and LBTQ+ to recurring themes of definition, visibility and stigma that have plagued the field throughout its evolution. In keeping with the purpose of "think pieces" to promote iterative cycles of deliberation and discourse, the monograph represents a "bridge forum," connecting the perspectives of long-time scholars with those relatively new to the field. This is particularly timely as many first, second, and third generation members of COPIS (the Council on Professors of Instructional Supervision) are retiring, leaving young scholars to carry the field forward without the benefit of their support and collective memories of the field. By bringing together multiple past and current perspectives on supervision as a field of study, the monograph provides a valuable resource for those who want to ensure a future of robust scholarship on the complicated theory and practice of instructional supervision.
