| Annual Goals - 2021 |
|---|
|
Educator preparation program improvement goals for the upcoming program year |
| Goal #1 |
After having added culturally-responsive/anti-racist language to the CAP rubric, we will work to better align our courses with those aspirations. In particular, we will increase the number of class sessions devoted to CRP in our curriculum courses, revise the lesson plan templates used in those curriculum courses (so that they match the our additions to the CAP rubric), & provide feedback to let students know when they have met these expectations and when there is substantial room for improvement. |
| Goal #2 |
Due to COVID we were unable to make much progress on our partnership goal last year, so we will try again next year. While we continue to be small "p" partners with several other districts, we will focus on building a more robust relationship with Norton, our official capital "P" partner, by working together on staffing, practicum design, and evidence of effectiveness. |
| Goal #3 |
We will host the annual meeting of the Consortium for Excellence in Teacher Education (CETE). The main conference session will focus on recruiting and retaining teacher candidates of color. |
| Annual Goals - 2020 |
|---|
|
Educator preparation program improvement goals from the prior year |
| Goal #1 |
We will revise the rubrics that we use to assess the e-portfolios that teacher candidates create during the practicum so that the portfolios provide more explicit evidence of student performance with respect to the six essential elements. |
| Goal #2 |
While we continue to be small "p" partners with several other districts, we will focus on building a more robust relationship with Norton, our official capital "P" partner, by working together on staffing, practicum design, and evidence of effectiveness. |
| Goal #3 |
We will implement and assess pre-practicum gateway assessments in each program. |
| Annual Goals - 2019 |
|---|
|
Educator preparation program improvement goals from the prior year |
| Goal #1 |
Our new hire will co-coordinate the ECE/ ELM licensure programs as well as focus on Special Education and STEM course development. Our goal is to mentor our new hire regarding state regs, needs of our students, course development, partnerships in the field, the new college curriculum and her scholarship agenda. |
| Goal #2 |
We will spend the 2019-2020 year addressing the Findings identified in our formal program approval report. Although were officially approved, due to the lack of our 3 full time faculty members on campus during the school year, we have placed these on our summer 2019 retreat agenda for focused attention during the 2019-2020 year by all full time and adjunct faculty. This is particularly beneficial to our new hire who will join us for the retreat. |
| Goal #3 |
During the 2019-2020 school year, we will focus on reviewing our prepracticum requirements and the further use of on site (or video taped) observations as well as consideration of a gateway assessment. |
