The Effects of Clinical Supervision on the Teaching Performance of Secondary School Teachers

Abstract

This study was carried out to determine the effects of clinical supervision on the teaching performance of teachers in secondary school. This study involves 33 teachers from a secondary school of which 11 (33%) are male teachers and 22 (67%) are female teachers. The study employed a set of instruments for observing teaching and learning which was adapted from Standard Determinant Instrument or Instrumen Pemastian Standard (IPS) from the School Inspectorate, (Ministry of Education Malaysia, 2003). IPS has been used by all the schools to evaluate the dimension III, education program management and element 9 that is teaching and learning. The teaching performance of teachers is measured based on the daily lesson plan (DLP), induction set, lesson delivery, questioning techniques, student involvement, reinforcement, student exercise and assignment, checking of student exercise and assignment, lesson closure and class management before and after clinical supervision. The findings of this study help teachers in school to find out the shortcomings and advantages of their teaching performances in the classroom. Clinical supervision also helps teachers to improve teaching and learning to be more effective to enhance students’ understanding. Clinical supervision can also be used as guidance for teaching and learning improvement by school inspectorates with the use of IPS.
