  5. Transforming Educator Preparation: The Blue Ribbon Panel Recommendations and Policymakers’ Key Role James G. Cibulka President NCATE/CAEP

  6. Blue Ribbon Panel on Clinical Preparation, Partnerships, and Improved Student Learning Response to concerns that preparation is disconnected from practice Recommendation to “turn educator preparation upside down” Higher education and state leadership on Panel symbolic Recommendations for joint P-12/higher ed responsibility and accountability for preparation

  7. 10 Design Principles Implications for organizational changes in education preparation Examples: • P-12 student learning is the focus • Clinical preparation is integrated throughout every facet...in a dynamic way • Strategic partnerships are imperative for powerful clinical preparation

  8. More Rigorous Accountability • Changes in accreditation and state standards: • Set clear goals for quality and effectiveness • Implement rigorous monitoring and enforcement • Connect candidate performance, preparation, and program approval to student learning

  9. More Rigorous Accountability All programs must meet same standards Accountability closer to the classroom

  10. Selection and Placement • Selection • Increase rigor and diversity in admissions • NRC research guide • Placement: • Help facilitate school of ed coordination with low performing schools where available • Place cadres of student teachers/interns vs. sole individual

  11. Revamping Curriculum, Incentives, and Staffing • Will require leadership of Chiefs; SHEEOs; chancellors; presidents──through new policies: Curriculum • Wrap coursework around clinical experiences • Examine state policies on clinical preparation

  12. Revamping Curriculum, Incentives, and Staffing Incentives Change incentives for school of education faculty Staffing Develop new staffing models, especially to assist low-performing schools.

  13. Support Partnerships for New Model of Educator Preparation • Roles for SHEEOs, Chancellors, Presidents, Provosts, and Chiefs • Remove barriers to collaboration between higher education and P-12 • Provide incentives to meet district needs • Shared approach vs. silos; investigate fused/joint funding • Partnerships must serve school needs

  24. Ohio’s Reform Overview Began with HB1, July 2009 New Accountability Metrics Developed Areas on Metrics include: partnerships, curriculum, hard-to-staff schools, etc. Working with Blue Ribbon committee on issues of placement and clinical practice

  25. Teacher Preparation Quality Measurements A Minimum Standards Every teacher preparation program in Ohio will report on the success of each graduate on the following measurements: • Whether the graduate passed the state licensure exam • The performance of the graduate on the Teacher Performance Assessment • The value-added growth metric (as determined by the Ohio Department of Education) The Chancellor will work with higher education leaders to determine minimum scores for the teacher performance assessment and the value-added growth metric. Minimum scores for state licensure exams are determined by the Ohio State Board of Education. Programs will be required to meet the minimum scores to maintain the authorization to offer teacher preparation programs in Ohio.

  26. Teacher Preparation Quality Measurements B Excellence and Innovation Additional recognition will be given to institutions that demonstrate commitment and success in the following areas: • Placement of graduates in hard-to-staff schools in urban and rural settings (both public and private) • Quality of partnerships with all P-12 schools (public and private) • Partnerships to improve the performance of low performing schools • Education students gaining international experiences • Use of innovative technologies for instruction • Other initiatives determined by the Chancellor4 (STEMM partnerships, Woodrow Wilson Fellowship, etc.)

  27. Teacher Preparation Quality Measurements C Continuous Improvement In order to gauge the continuing progress of efforts to raise the quality of entering teacher candidates, student teaching experiences, and alignment with employer needs, each school will report on: • The quality of candidates entering and continuing through teacher preparation programs • The quality of field and clinical experiences • The satisfaction of teachers with the quality of their preparation program • Performance surveys from mentors and employers • Percent of newly hired teachers completing the state residency program5 • National accreditation • Other initiatives determined by the Chancellor
