Annual Goals - 2017
Educator preparation program improvement goals from the prior year

Goal #2 To strengthen candidate effectiveness around (2) Professional Standards for Teachers, Teaching All Students, expand range and depth of diverse experience within key assignment and pre-practicum activities.
Goal #3 Connect CAP SMART goal with a modified Inquiry Project done within the practicum and seminar for post baccalaureate teacher candidates, thereby providing evidence of candidate reflection and student learning.

Annual Goals - 2016
Educator preparation program improvement goals from the prior year
Goal #1 Goal: Graduate School of Education teacher and reading specialist candidates have done an Inquiry Project (IP) within their practicum for the past 20 years. The goal this year is to learn how an IP reinforces CAP regarding self-assessment, goal setting, reflection and evidence of PreK-12 student learning.
Goal #2 Goal: The intersection of retirements, new PSTs, CAP and Lesley's e-portfolio system, creates an opportunity to make the links between course preparation, early field experience and the practicum more cohesive and responsive to candidate and district needs. Another essential effort will be to strengthen recruitment, training, retention and recognition of supervising practitioners and program supervisors.
Goal #3 Goal: Use the Partnership, Employment and Placement information to develop a strategic plan with several organizing elements to focus on particular districts, license areas and program specific initiatives.
