Oral Educational Supervision Theory

(General Idea)

Abdul Jalil Al-Shawamreh

This supervisory theory is based on building human relations and building trust between the supervisor and the teacher and on mutual respect between them without affectation and rejects the supervisor showing any degree of authority over the teacher. This theory aims to develop the teacher's overall work to ultimately develop education through wise supervisory management adopted by the supervisor. This theory believes in friendship and cooperation and opening up horizons of human communication between the supervisor and the teacher. This theory fights all methods and forms of inspection and inspection behavior of supervisors of teachers. In return, it acknowledges that educational supervision has not developed due to this behavior, and blames the behavior of the educational supervisor for the failure of educational supervision and its stagnation despite the multiplicity of its means and methods, which we may call modern. All of this is a result of the approach of evaluating the teacher instead of developing him, and frightening the teacher instead of building confidence in himself. Therefore, this theory does not believe in written evaluation and supervisory reports, regardless of their descriptive or numerical form, and rejects it categorically because evaluation from a point of view This theory is seen as a corruption of the supervisory work, and this theory believes in feedback between the two parties of the supervision process, which are the teacher and the supervisor, and it also believes in the principle of “let’s work together”. It believes in the teacher’s insight into his strengths to enhance them and his weaknesses to strengthen them, because every person is keen on strengthening and developing himself, and it believes in educational training based on the
teacher’s actual need and desire to develop.
