Strengths of the Teacher Education Program
  • Historical commitment to content area learning
  • Respect for faculty ownership from across campus
    as evidenced by joint, split courtesy
    appointments
  • Governed by Teacher Education Council (TEC)
  • Strong commitment to sequenced field experiences
    prior to student teaching
  • Continuously engaged in self study

14
Challenges of the New Standards(Professional and
NCATE)
  • Stakes are higher (NCLB)
  • Input versus output - performance-based standards
    and assessments
  • Accreditation requires involvement of the entire
    university - shared vision
  • We can no longer assume that we are preparing
    good educators we must provide evidence of that
    fact
