Extractions: Text Links: Home Lesson Plans Humor Teacher Inquiry ... Links Feedback is invited: Email me! Uncredentialled Teachers: an Urban Disaster What will it take to fix our schools? Strong, effective, qualified teachers must be front and center. Unfortunately, though Oakland schools are making serious change a priority, the level of teacher experience continues to be an Achilles heel. Study after study has revealed that the most important factor in a child's education is his teacher. Preparation and experience are two critical factors affecting teacher quality. Five years ago, the state reduced elementary class sizes, creating an instant teacher shortage. Policy-makers took the easy way out, eliminating the requirement that one hold a credential before beginning to teach. The new system allows you to pass a skills test, promise to begin a training program and begin teaching without an iota of preparation. Districts like Oakland, which have the most challenging teaching situations, are losing credentialed teachers left and right, because other districts hire them away. As a result, while the state has 85% of its teachers with credentials, and a strong district like Albany has 98%, Oakland has only 75%.What is worse, at some of the District's middle schools fewer than 40% of the teachers hold credentials. And the numbers at some schools have actually gotten worse in the past three years, in spite of a substantial pay raise. Not surprisingly, test scores at these schools are some of the lowest in the district. Thus, a well-intentioned reform has had the effect of exaggerating inequity, putting these students even farther behind.

Trinity Academics - Education in America Practicum The Master teacher Practicum The student Teaching students Pedagogics,Secondary School Leadership, supervision and Evaluation http://www.trinity.edu/departments/public_relations/Academic/education.htm
Extractions: The Department of Education at Trinity University features innovative and challenging programs for students interested in teaching in the nation's public or private elementary and secondary schools. Specific programs prepare students for certification in elementary, secondary, and special education. The Trinity student interested in teaching is provided an excellent preparation in the liberal arts and sciences, and then the professional education coursework that provides the knowledge and skills for success in the elementary or secondary classroom. A special effort is made to get to know the students, assist them in making career plans, and, ultimately, in securing employment as a teacher. The Department of Education offers teacher preparation programs in elementary education; secondary education, with some twenty-four teaching fields; and special education. The teacher education sequence is a five-year program. The B.A. degree in an academic discipline is awarded at the completion of undergraduate studies. The fifth year, which Trinity students must complete to satisfy Texas certification requirements and to receive the benefits of existing reciprocity agreements with other states, consists of a summer and two regular term semesters. On completion of the fifth year, students receive the MAT (Master of Arts in Teaching), a professional degree.
Student And Class Projects Using The Internet are designed using heterogeneous student groupings, with a great resource for findingteacherapproved web groups will need constant supervision, while others http://teacher.scholastic.com/professional/teachtech/usinginternet.htm
Extractions: One of the greatest benefits of using the Internet in the classroom is to provide educational opportunities for students based on their abilities and interests. For example, I can teach a basic lesson on a writing strategy and allow a student who is interested in and motivated by baseball to find examples of the writing strategy on a baseball-focused Web site. This lesson suddenly becomes more motivating, exciting, and memorable to this student. Brain research shows that individuals remember events and facts in more detail for a longer period of time if there are emotions involved in the initial learning experience. This concept of emotional memory is highly useful as we use the Internet in our classrooms. Due to the timeliness and currency of the Internet and the fact that students can find information that naturally interests them, the Internet can increase the emotional impact of lessons, and making learning interesting, fun, and meaningful to students. This seminar discusses the use of individual and class projects using the Internet to help students experience the joy of learning for themselves. As students gain experience learning for the pure joy of learning, their emotional interest, intrinsic motivation, and hunger for knowledge also increase.

Extractions: A Summary of the Regional Conferences There seems to be a consensus on the need to increase student support and supervision at the secondary level. How can this be done: a homeroom system, stable groups, a tutoring system, supervised study periods? Should each community be allowed to select the forms of supervision likely to meet its needs most effectively? Participants agreed on the need to increase student supervision, especially at the secondary level, as a condition for success in school. However, they also felt that this element was not generally deficient, thanks to the efforts made in recent years. Many participants suggested that supervision should be reduced gradually to develop the autonomy of students as they progress through the education system. Nevertheless, it was agreed that supervision is essential at the college level, especially during the first term, when the need for academic and psychological support and guidance is greatest. All agreed that it is up to each school community (administration, teaching staff, students and parents) to select the form of supervision it considers most appropriate. In this respect, however, some participants felt that things should not be left to chance, but rather that action research should be conducted to identify local problems and provide information as a basis for the selection of supervision methods, that the selected methods should be clearly set out in the school's educational project and included in individualized education plans, in the case of students with handicaps or learning or adjustment difficulties.

Extractions: The Doctor as Teacher September 1999 Introduction In our Recommendations on the Training of Specialists, we acknowledge that the example of the teacher is the most powerful influence upon the standards of conduct and practice of every trainee, whether medical student or junior doctor. Our recommendations about the pre-registration year, The New Doctor and about training at senior house officer grade, The Early Years discuss in some detail the arrangements that should be made for the supervision of new medical graduates and those in the early stages of training for specialist practice. The guidance in this pamphlet supplements that in our recommendations about general clinical and general professional/basic specialist training. It sets out our expectations of those who provide a role model by acting as clinical or educational supervisors to junior colleagues, and of the bodies under whose auspices this task is undertaken. The guidance applies equally to those who supervise medical students, as they begin to acquire the professional attitudes, skills and knowledge they will need as doctors.

Supervising Teachers in the Willamette University Clinical supervision workshop or attend three MAT supervisingteacher meetings scheduled resources to help student teachers plan http://www.willamette.edu/mat/superteachers.html
Extractions: Supervising teachers are considered adjunct faculty who share responsibility with university faculty in providing support, instructional assistance, and assessment of student teachers. The design of the student teaching experience is unique to the individual situation and is controlled by the joint decisions of the supervising teacher, the university, and the student teacher. Supervising teachers meet with the School of Education faculty on campus three times during the school year. The role of the supervising teacher is to serve as a model, guide, and instructor for the student teacher. Our program is intentionally internship based. Therefore, it is critical to the successful preparation of the MAT students that supervising teachers provide significant instructional assistance throughout the year.

Extractions: CERTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS FOR UTAH EDUCATORS STUDENT TEACHERS AND INTERNS CERTIFICATION STATEMENT OF PHILOSOPHY Student teaching is the process which provides the teacher education student the opportunity to assume the responsibilities of a professional practitioner. Success in student teaching is regularly accepted as evidence both of demonstrated performance and potential and, together with successful completion of other requirements, entitles the student to a recommendation for a teaching certificate. The teacher internship is an alternative to the student teaching model. Internships are designed to facilitate the induction of new teachers into the educational system by providing an extended, intensive, and supervised teaching experience. AUTHORITY TO MAKE POLICY The general control and supervision of the public school system of the state of Utah are vested in the State Board of Education. Its authority includes (1) adopting policies which have broad application and give to the Board the general overseeing of the public school system; (2) enacting rules and regulations to eliminate and prevent all unnecessary duplication of work or instruction in school districts and elsewhere as provided by law; and (3) setting standards under which the public school system shall be operated. Specifically, with regard to teacher education programs, Section 53A-6-103(1) of state law provides that "The State Board of Education shall establish the scholarship, training, and experience required of applicants for certificates."
