Abstract
The purposes of this study are as below: first, to review the related knowledge base of clinical supervision and effective teaching, and second, to examine whether clinical supervision impacts teaching effectiveness of the student teachers.
A multiple research design was employed in this study. Literature review was used to collect theoretical data. An experiment design was used to verify if there was a different impact on teaching effectiveness for student teachers between clinical supervision and traditional supervision. The population consisted of 30 student teachers, 15 in the treatment group and 15 in the comparison group. Results were analyzed by using the statistic of ANCOVA. In addition, a semi-structured interview was applied to collect the perceptions of the student teachers and the mentor teachers about the process and influence of clinical supervision on their instructional development.
The main findings of this study were as follows: (1)The student teachers’ teaching effectiveness was moderately high. (2) There were some significant differences between the groups in classroom observation of the teacher’s effectiveness about instructional domains and behaviors. (3) No significant differences were made between the groups in teacher self-appraisal of the teacher’s effectiveness about instructional domains and behaviors. (4) There were some significant differences between the groups in student-ratings of the teacher’s effectiveness about instructional domains and behaviors. The data from semi-structure interview was analyzed with reference to six dimensions for the process and influence of clinical supervision.
According to the research findings, this author proposes several suggestions for educational administration agencies, teacher education institutes, elementary schools, mentor teachers, student teachers, and further study respectively.
