Annual Goals

This report lists the annual improvement goals reported to ESE in the educator preparation program provider’s state annual report. Providers may report up to three goals for the upcoming year and are asked to report on progress made toward the prior year’s goals. Annual goals are reported in May of the academic year listed.

Annual Goals - 2013
Goal #1 Use MTEL data in the University's database to analyze candidates' MTEL performance for Foundations of Reading, General Curriculum-Multi Subject and General Curriculum-Mathematics in elementary, moderate and severe initial license programs at the baccalaureate and post baccalaureate levels. This research will define further candidate academic profiles for targeted advising and timely support.
Goal #2 Baccalaureate educator license and the graduate school guidance and school adjustment counselor candidates will submit key assignments as additional evidence of learning into Lesley's e-portfolio system. The Graduate School of Education is able to examine both individual and aggregated performance over time, against particular standards and for individual program options. Auditing of programs happened two years ago and 2011-12 was the final face validity check of the key assignments and rubrics leading to 2013 when data began to be analyzed.
Goal #3 At baccalaureate and post baccalaureate levels, implement the MA ESE approved Sheltered English Instruction (PreK-6, 5-12) 4 credit course in all initial teacher and reading specialist license program options and for all professional license program options.
