This article focuses on teacher-supervisor cooperation in the construction of children curriculum in schools. The key word which adequately defines the relationship of the modern teacher and supervisor is cooperation. The modern teacher and supervisor are peers. It is the responsibility of the teacher to see that the experiences had by children achieve meaning and direction and that they square with acceptable educational objectives. This is a large task and for it the average teacher needs help. Most frequently the teacher appeals to her supervisor who, in turn, looks to her teachers for help in the overall responsibility of developing a curriculum to meet the needs of modern children. Many techniques have been developed and tested by teachers and supervisors in the cooperative process of curriculum construction. Direct suggestions to a teacher from a supervisor sometimes bring rich and unexpected rewards. Practice rarely goes awry in curriculum improvement when teachers are sincerely interested in the welfare of individual children. This means that both teachers and supervisors will make an effort to know the children in relation to their interests and needs. And it means they will attempt to understand child behavior which teachers and supervisors know never happens but is always caused. When such an intelligent approach is made to curriculum construction, success will surely crown the efforts of both supervisor and teacher. |
