Extractions: Source: ERIC Clearinghouse for Community Colleges The Status of Teacher Education in Community Colleges. ERIC Digest. The United States is in the midst of a teacher shortage. By 2010, the United States will need between 2 and 2.5 million more elementary and secondary school teachers to enter the classroom and assume the challenges in public schools (Townsend and Ignash, 2003). While 4-year colleges and universities continue to offer comprehensive teacher preparation programs, community colleges have expanded their programs in the field of teacher education in recent years to provide additional options for teacher training. In addition to offering the first two years of requirements for a baccalaureate degree, community colleges have added coordinated programs for transfer, added new certificate and associate degree programs, and augmented support services, all of which have increased student access to and completion of teacher preparation programs. This ERIC Digest, drawn from The Role of the Community College in Teacher Education (New Directions for Community Colleges, Spring 2003), examines trends in teacher education in the community colleges, including building partnerships and articulation agreements with baccalaureate-granting institutions, designing new associate degree and community college baccalaureate degree programs, and gaining accreditation.

Extractions: Maryland Updated on November 23, 1998 Maryland The only mentoring and new teacher support in Maryland during most of the 1980's was a series of individual program efforts carried out on a voluntary basis by local school districts. In the Maryland State Dept. of Education and the area's regional lab (Research for Better Schools) conducted a research study on existing approaches to support of new teachers being used in the state. See Meister, G. (1987). "Current Practices in New Teacher Development in Maryland". MSDE and Research for Better Schools. During that same year, in an effort to inform the practices of existing programs and to support development of new programs, the same partnership also conducted and published a review of the mentoring literature and existing program models. See Newcombe, E. (1987). "Perspectives on Teacher Induction: A Review of the Literature and Promising Program Models". Baltimore, MD. MSDE and Research for Better Schools. Also in the state funded a pilot induction program in 5 school districts called the "Exemplary Programs Project". This pilot used the state's "Maryland Teacher Competencies" and the "Maryland Competency Observation Instrument. See Maryland State Dept. of Education. 1087). "A Manual for Classroom Observers: Maryland Teaching". Baltimore, MD: Maryland State Dept. of Education, for details about the state's competencies and instrument. An excellent review of the extent of mentoring programs in Maryland was published in

Extractions: NAN Home Page Assembly Exemplary Certification Programs ... Contact NAN The National Academy of Needlearts offers a Teachers' Certification Program which includes training in all aspects of embroidery instruction, from the development of teaching and presentation skills to study in design and color and the production of the written work necessary for the successful teaching of needle arts. NAN's program is suited to either the novice or the experienced teacher of the needlearts who wishes to develop and refine her/his instructional skills. Full certification requires three years of intensive study. During that time the candidate designs and develops several classes in her/his chosen medium, and compiles a viable portfolio of her/his own original teaching pieces. Book critiques, color and design notebooks, and oral teaching presentations complete the certification process. In addition, the candidate also participates in several hands-on teaching experiences. The oral presentation and the display of the candidate's embroidered work are among the highlights of the Certification Weekend, held in conjunction with the NAN Assembly for Embroiderers.

Alternative Programs for Learning Enrichment (APLE) was developed cooperatively by the North American Division Office of Education (NADOE) and Home Study International (HSI) to meet the needs of K-8 schools and junior academies who have students unwilling to go to a boarding academy hundreds of miles away. By enrolling for APLE, such schools are able to use a combination of HSI and local school resources to offer Grades 9-12 to students who might otherwise enter the public school system.

Extractions: The Survey of Teacher Certification and State-Based Standards and Assessments for Teachers and Students is a collaborative effort of: American Historical Association Organization of American Historians s A central goal of this project was to develop a snapshot of precollegiate history education in the 50 states and Washington, D.C. Hired by the Organization of American Historians as the lead researcher for this OAH/AHA project, Sarah Drake Brown requested information in the following categories: certification requirements for history teachers at the elementary, middle, and high school levels standards in history for teachers standards in history for the K-12 curriculum high school graduation requirements and exit examination requirements in history state criterion-referenced examinations in history statewide resources for history teachers and contact information for state history/social studies specialists statewide associations for teacher membership This proved to be a massive amount of data, so the information was collected in separate steps: independent searches for data, preliminary public presentations of initial findings, and early contact with numerous representatives in history education from each of the states and the District of Columbia. Preliminary data was then collected from the web sites created and maintained by the various departments of education and certifying bodies in each of the states. This information was then compiled into reports for each state, organized into sections based on the categories listed above.
