ABSTRACT

This chapter details the lines of educational research inquiry that substantiate the reality of the right side, resulting in more consciously competent educators that are ready to "autosupervise". Since there is a dearth of literature about the feedback quality in teacher evaluation systems, one can pursue what makes high-quality feedback for students. Noel Burch, a business training expert, created the Conscious Competence Ladder in the 1970s. This ladder and theory are often misattributed to psychologist Abraham Maslow. Individuals who demonstrate Self-Actualization are very aware of their actions as well as the intended and unintended consequences. Maslow probably wouldn't have agreed with the order of the Competence Ladder. Instructional leadership activities that offer meaningful feedback to teachers may help. Autosupervision, in this context, represents the act of individuals processing their high-quality written feedback and accelerating improvements in classroom practice. Teacher evaluation as accountability is most present in educational policy.
