IN AN EFFORT TO MEET THE NEW DEMAND OF INCREASING ENROLLMENT AND THE ENLARGEMENT OF THE SCOPE OF BUSINESS AND OFFICE EDUCATION, THE OHIO STATE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION HAS INITIATED A PROGRAM TO INCREASE THE QUANTITY AND TO IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF LOCAL SUPERVISION. THE GUIDELINES COVER THE RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE SUPERVISOR IN AREAS OF SUBJECT MATTER, TEACHING METHODS, INSTRUCTIONAL STAFF, MATERIALS AND EQUIPMENT, WORKING WITH ADMINISTRATIVE PERSONNEL, RESEARCH, BUDGETARY MATTERS, PUBLIC RELATIONS, GUIDANCE, PLACEMENT, FOLLOWUP, EVALUATION, AND STUDENT TEACHING. THE APPENDIX CONTAINS THE FOLLOWING SAMPLE FORMS -- AN APPLICATION FOR APPROVAL OF REIMBURSEMENT OF THE SUPERVISOR OF BUSINESS AND OFFICE EDUCATION, A TIME PLAN FOR LOCAL SUPERVISORS, A SURVEY OF BUSINESS OFFICES AND STORES, A FOLLOWUP STUDY OF GRADUATES OF THE BUSINESS COURSE, AND CRITERIA FOR EVALUATING THE BUSINESS EDUCATION PROGRAM.
