Active supervision: empowering teachers and families to support students in varied learning contexts

Abstract

In this article, we introduce active supervision as a simple, feasible strategy for teachers and families to increase student engagement as well as decrease off-task and disruptive behaviors across a range of contexts. We provide step-by-step guidance to illustrate how active supervision can be used by teachers in in-person and virtual learning environments as well as how families can incorporate active supervision into daily routines at home.
