Educator preparation program improvement goals from the prior year |
| Goal #1 |
Our partner schools have experienced significant staffing challenges this academic year. In response, we expanded our spring 2022 education hiring fair. In addition, we held mock interviews to introduce PK-12 administrators to our teacher candidates early in 2022 and have offered support and flexibility to help alleviate the staffing challenges in local schools. |
| Goal #2 |
This academic year we have enhanced our focus on community-care and self-care in our courses and field based experiences as we have transitioned back to in-person learning environments. Staffing challenges and overall elevations in stressors in our PK-12 partner school districts impact our candidates. We are working tirelessly to reduce the physical and emotional toll upon our candidates. |
| Goal #3 |
Pilot a model that more intentionally incorporates anti-racist practices by design (both content and pedagogy). This will be integrated into our FBE and CAP evaluation system at the post-baccalaureate level. |
