clinical supervision
definition: Originating in the mid-1950s and early1960s through the work of Morris Cogan and others at Harvard, clinical supervision emerged as a way to promote in-class supervision to assist teachers in improving instructional practices to enhance student learning through the use of data collected and analyzed jointly by the teacher and supervisor. The term clinical was used to distinguish general supervision from in-class supervision and to elevate the professional practice of supervision to include close observations, detailed observation data, face-to-face interaction between the supervisor and the teacher, and a focus that connects the two together in an intimate professional relationship.
