Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers an innovative approach to managing and supervising educational systems by implementing the principles of scientific management. It is a groundbreaking work that aligns with the broader movement within the industrial and business world to optimize organizational performance. Within the field of education, this approach had previously been underdeveloped. Specific principles discussed include setting clear qualitative and quantitative standards for educational outcomes, providing specific instructions and materials to workers (teachers), and establishing incentives to stimulate desirable effort. The author explains how these principles can be applied to the educational field, even though this field presents unique challenges compared to the realm of material production. The book provides a detailed discussion of each principle, illustrating how it can be used to improve the quality and efficiency of education. It also includes measurement scales and methods for tracking student progress, enabling teachers and supervisors to make informed decisions about instructional practices. By adopting the principles outlined in this book, educational systems can increase the effectiveness of their instructional efforts, elevate the quality of teaching, and ultimately enhance student outcomes.
