Educator preparation program improvement goals for the upcoming program year |
Annual Goals - 2019 |
|
Educator preparation program improvement goals from the prior year |
Goal #1 |
Over the upcoming year, the Lynch School of Education and Human Development administration team plan on revisiting extant partnerships to identify areas of strength and areas of improvement. Enrollment trends will be analyzed to identify partners best suited to meet practicum placement needs. |
Goal #2 |
With anticipated expansion of bilingual education teacher preparation programs, the Lynch School of Education and Human Development practicum office will revisit strategies in the recruitment and training of bilingual supervisors as well as establish new partnerships with two-way immersion schools. |
Goal #3 |
Over the upcoming year, the Teacher Education, Special Education, and Curriculum and Instruction department will review changes to the Subject Matter Knowledge regulations and adapt curriculum and instruction to meet DESE expectations. |
Annual Goals - 2018 |
|
Educator preparation program improvement goals from the prior year |
Goal #1 |
With the success of the pilot Supervising Practitoner Advisory Board, we will expand our reach to each of our partner schools. Supervising Practitioners will meet over the summer as well as at least once per semester to provide feedback on their experiences and to make suggestions on how to improve our programs. |
Goal #2 |
The ESE Final Report identified stronger connections are possible between the teacher education, education leadership, and school counseling programs. As such, over the upcoming year, a goal is to strengthen internal structures and protocols to facilitate stronger relationships between faculty, staff, and students across these licensure areas. Stronger connections between each department have the potential to not only improve our educator candidate experience, but to also strengthen the depth and impact of our partnerships with area schools. |
Goal #3 |
This upcoming year, we aim to improve the quality of program supervisors and supervising practitioners by launching an online mentoring class. The five module session will supplement current training activities (summer orientation, monthly trainings, assigned mentor) with the hope to deepen the skills and expertise of our current and future supervisory team (SP & PS). The online course will be piloted in Summer 2018 with both program supervisors and supervisory practitioners. |
