  19. Analyzing a Standard Standard 3: Early Orientation Early orientation is designed to meet the needs of beginning teachers. The program sponsor Collaborates with the employer in providing an early Orientation before or during the first month of teaching that includes the introductory skills, knowledge, and attitudes required for beginning CTE teaching success. These competencies will be further developed in a sequenced and scaffolded structure that includes teaching methods, learning styles, lesson planning, CTE concepts, equity and diversity in the classroom, mandated reporting, and legal and ethical issues.

  20. Program Planning Prompts • 3(a) In what ways does the orientation provide an introduction to teaching knowledge, skills, and attitudes that is sequenced and scaffolded for the immediate needs of a beginning teacher? • 3(b) How are an overview of instructional planning, effective classroom management, and SDAIE strategies addressed in the orientation?

  21. Nature and Use of Evidence WASC Evidence Guide, 2002 • “….a culture of evidence where indicators of performance are regularly developed and data collected to inform institutional decision-making, planning and improvement.” • ‘the substance of what is advanced to support a claim that something is true’

  22. Characteristics of Evidence • Intentional and purposeful • Interpretative and reflective • Integrated and holistic • Quantitative and qualitative • Direct and indirect

  23. Good evidence is… • RELEVANT (on topic) • VERIFIABLE (documentable and replicable) • REPRESENTATIVE (typical) • CUMULATIVE (multiple sources, methods, approaches) • ACTIONABLE - analyzed to inform program improvements

  24. Some Types of Evidence • Description/charts • Meeting schedules/minutes • Program forms/communiques • Course descriptions and syllabi • Samples class assignments • Faculty vitae/hiring policies • Student assessment rubrics • Evaluation/survey forms

  25. Redesigning Programs to Meet New Standards • Complex systemic approach • Faculty and staff roles • Administrative responsibilities • External partnerships

  26. Confront assumptions about TEACHING and LEARNING • What beginning teachers need to know and be able to do with regard to subject matter • What professional knowledge and experiences they need to have • What kind of professional they should become

  27. Confront assumptions about RESOURCES • What program provides • New/continuing work • Work redistribution • Allocation/reallocation of resources • New resources needed

  28. Confront assumptions about HOW • How will you adjust or overhaul your current program? • What do you retain, revise, create anew from current practice? • SWOT analysis (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats)

  29. Redefine and renew faculty and staff roles • Professional development for faculty on new standards • Implementing new supervision requirements • Collaboration among faculty and staff

  30. Redefine and renew faculty and staff roles, cont. • Work across departments/ schools/sectors • Integrate fieldwork (teaching) and coursework • Collaborate with K- 12 schools • Advise/support candidates

  31. Create and reinvigorate partnerships • Articulation with K-12 schools (employers) • Collaborative program delivery to maximize institutional resources • Regular and clear communication

  32. Context for Review • Training, calibration and document reading • Ongoing cycles of program meetings and electronic reviews

  33. Reviewers’ Charge Professional recommendations to the Commission based on: • Program claims and evidence • Knowledge and judgment, not opinions • Application of standards

  34. Reviewers’ Charge , cont. • Commitment to complete timely reviews • Decisions through consensus • Integrity of the review process • Strict confidentiality of the process
