Extractions: International Employment for Teachers Alternative Certification Many states have developed or are initiating programs that provide alternative routes to teacher certification, particularly for mid-career professionals. The goal of such programs is to draw a diversity of individuals with in-depth subject matter backgrounds into teaching careers. Requirements for an alternative teaching license vary by state. For an overseas position, it does not matter what state your license is from. Generally, applicants must hold a bachelors degree in the subject to be taught, achieve a passing score on state-required examinations, complete an intensive teacher preparation program, and possibly fulfill a supervised teaching internship. Specific information on which school systems are offering internships can be requested from the schools. After satisfactory completion of these requirements, the applicant will be issued a teaching credential.

Extractions: Education Psychology Home Academics ... Schools Certification Tests, Background Checks and Other Issues- FAQs about Teacher Education The following are responses to questions commonly asked by teacher education candidates in initial and advanced programs. 1. Do I have to pass all of my certification tests in order to graduate from ECU? The satisfactory completion of all three tests is a state requirement, not an ECU program requirement. It is possible to complete a teacher education program and for ECU to recommend a candidate for licensure but the state will not issue the license until all three tests have been passed. In order for the State of Oklahoma to issue a license, a candidate must have passed all three state licensure tests- all three state certification tests must be successfully completed- NO EXCEPTIONS. Candidates must have passed the Oklahoma General Education Test (OGET), the Oklahoma Subject Area Test (OSAT) for the area of their certification program, and the Oklahoma Professional Teaching Exam (OPTE) before the OSDE will issue a Teaching License. 2.

Extractions: November 2004 On May 18, 2004, Oklahoma Governor Brad Henry signed Senate Bill 1207 into law, culminating years of work towards legislation giving Nationally Certified School Psychologists and Speech Pathologists recognition and monetary bonuses equivalent to Nationally Certified Teachers (currently $5,000 per year). Unique about this bill is that Oklahoma is the only state in which the speech pathologists' state association-the Oklahoma Speech and Hearing Association (OSHA)-has collaborated with the school psychologists' state association-the Oklahoma School Psychological Association (OSPA). Background and Rationale Historically, this legislative journey was launched when a small group of interested school psychologists, including Jane Bias, Andrew Glenn, Candis Hogan, Joyce Lowrey and others, met with Senator Cal Hobson, then Chair of the Senate Committee on Appropriations Subcommittee on Education, after work in Norman, OK. At that time, school districts in the Oklahoma City metro area, for example, had had school psychologist job openings that remained unfilled for up to a year, with more vacancies anticipated for the next few years. Another concern was that a significant percentage of school psychologists currently working in public schools would be eligible to retire in five years or less. Professional recognition and salary bonus for Nationally Certified School Psychologists would be a positive incentive for

Foreign Language Teacher Certification. ERIC Digest. An effort to develop teacher certification standards based on the ACTFL/ETS Georgia and oklahoma use tests developed by FL teachers in conjunction with http://www.ericdigests.org/pre-924/language.htm
Extractions: Source: ERIC Clearinghouse on Languages and Linguistics Washington DC. Foreign Language Teacher Certification. ERIC Digest. Typically, beginning foreign language (FL) teachers in the United States must complete an "approved program" of teacher education in a four-year college or university, have a certain minimum grade point average, and complete a specified number of credit hours in the foreign language to be certified. To receive "approved program" status, institutions must demonstrate to their state department of education that they are fulfilling state standards. Most states model their standards after two statements developed by the FL teaching profession in the 1950s and '60s titled, QUALIFICATIONS FOR SECONDARY SCHOOL TEACHERS OF MODERN FOREIGN LANGUAGES and GUIDELINES FOR TEACHER EDUCATION PROGRAMS IN MODERN FOREIGN LANGUAGES (Paquette 1966). The QUALIFICATIONS are brief descriptions of "minimal," "good," and "superior" competence in listening comprehension, speaking, reading, writing, applied linguistics, culture and civilization, and pedagogy. The GUIDELINES describe model programs, using the QUALIFICATIONS as minimum objectives (Wing 1984).

"There are thousands of fine teachers in Oklahoma, so I know it was a difficult decision for the regional selection committee members to make," Garrett said. "The teachers nominated from schools across the state exemplify the high quality of our state's teaching force." The finalists were chosen from a field of local Teachers of the Year named in the 2001-2002 school year. Four regional selection committees comprised of teachers, including past Teachers of the Year, and PTA representatives select the 12 finalists. One of those finalists will be chosen as the Oklahoma Teacher of the Year, which will be announced at a ceremony this fall during the Oklahoma State Fair. All local Teachers of the Year will be recognized during the ceremony. The Oklahoma State Teacher of the Year serves as the state's Ambassador for Teaching, sharing knowledge and resources with fellow educators around the state and encouraging education as a profession. Under the leadership of Superintendent Garrett, the state's Teacher of the Year program has been expanded to include state funding for a full-time educator to care for the winner's classes for the year.
