  1. Systemwide Evaluation of First Year Teacher Preparation in the California State University A Comprehensive Look at the Outcomes of Teacher Preparation 1

  2. Purposes of the Systemwide Evaluation • To see how well recent CSU reforms in teacher preparation are working in practice. • To provide information so campuses can strengthen programs for teachers. • To compile data that address popular misconceptions about teacher preparation. 2

  3. Questions Addressed in the Evaluation • How many CSU graduates become teachers? • Are CSU graduates well-prepared to teach a standards-based curriculum? • Are CSU graduates well-prepared to teach all of California’s K-12 students? • How does the preparation of CSU graduates compare with the preparation of first-year teachers nationwide? • Are California’s alternate routes into teaching equally effective in preparing first-year teachers? 3

  4. Sources of Evidence in the CSU Evaluation • In four years, more than 5,300 school principals provided evidence, for a 50% response rate. Each one assessed the preparation of a CSU teacher. • Principals had supervised CSU teachers all year, observed them during instruction, and discussed teaching practices with them several times. • The principals had supervised many first-year teachers during their administrative careers. 4
