Management is process, that which are performed by managers.
We invariably come across managers who are involved in planning, organizing,
directing, motivating, controlling and decision making. These processes are also
called organizational process because they go beyond an individual manager and
effect the entire organization.
Everybody is well known and well aware that teachers carry
out their work on a day to day basis in conditions of endless variety,
disturbance and sometimes even unpredictability. As a manager a teacher can
conduct like as, formulates a plan of action of a year, a month or a day,
organize a debate in class, and motivates learners by giving reinforcement on
their effort. Decides on the audio-visual aids to be used while teaching a
particular topic, to be measure student’s performance and action their
assignments and project. Planning is a importance in school managements there
cannot be exist a good administration without planning very little scope for
intelligent and directed activity. It is an essential component of any kind of
meaningful activity to take place in a classroom or outside. A teacher as a
manager need to understand that there has to be a systematic, organized and
articulated scheme of working. We need planning on what to teach and how to
teach the content, lesson planning, co-curriculum activity planning etc. school
organization is also a important work for develop a school. Here we need to
define the purpose and objectives, analyse and identify activities or task
required to meet these objectives, allocate relation activities to individuals,
provide for management and co ordination of activities at each level of
responsibility, and need to establish a report and communication channel.
Determining the nature and sequence of various activities, defining the role of
different teachers in charge of different items for the programme. Direction
also very important function of management like others. Direction involves
getting the work done individuals have to be supervises, motivated and
communicated with. Motivation too a very important role in school management.
It needs adopting a positive attitude towards learners instead of a fault
finding one, giving positive reinforcement i.e. appreciation and
encouragement,making academic and non academic activities in a classroom
relevant, meaningful and joyful. Involving students in discussion and in
activities that call for collaboration, responding to student queries and
problems in an encouraging manner, making teaching learning process an
experimental one, so that the learners can identify with what is happening
outside the classroom. Controlling to students is also a very difficult matter.
Comparing result with plans and taking correctives action when required. It
indicated how far the goals have been achieved and to what extent there is deviation
from the plants. The basis control is measured. Its depends on accurate
information and feedback about what is happening compared with what should be
happening. In other words, we can say that control deals with the difference
between planned and actual performance. As a teacher we will be given tatal
responsibility for all that happens within your command. We cannot delegate
that responsibility in fact we will have to try and monitor everything that
goes on the classroom and outside. For an effective control teacher need to
plan what what they aim to achieve, measure regularly what has been achieved,
compare actual achievements with the plan, take collective measures to ensure
that deviations do not take place, take action to improve performance.
However we have to remember that various process processes
we need to follow to orderly and disciplined approach to the management by
teachers of a variety of uncertain, unpredictable and changing situations.
