A majority of states have reorganized or reduced department of education staff and/or introduced changes in state board structure or authority. One tool states use is the oversight commission. Commissions vary widely in scope of duties, structure and composition. Some have a very specific purview and limited term of operation, while others are broad in scope and ongoing in nature. All, however, seem to have accountability as a general goal, although their role is advisory. Here is a look at how some states structure and use education commissions. State Commission Information Alabama Ala. Code The Alabama Education Study Commission is designated as a standards on excellence commission. The commission is currently responsible for examining the public elementary and secondary schools and making an annual report on the status of public education. The Commission examines the required courses, testing programs for teacher candidates, promotion and retention standards, student assessment programs and the performance-based accreditation standards, as well as overall compliance under The Alabama Education Improvement Act of 1991 (Acts 1991, No. 91-323), and reports its findings to the governor, legislature and the state board.

http://www.nasponline.org/publications/cq321testethics.html

Extractions: September 2003 The psychology community is presently witnessing the periodic release of updated versions of commonly used intelligence (IQ) tests for children and adolescents. This started with the release of the Wechsler Preschool and Primary Scale of Intelligence, 3 rd Edition (WPPSI-III) in spring 2002, the Stanford-Binet 5 (SB 5) in February 2003, and continued into summer 2003 with the release of the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children, 4 th Edition (WISC-IV). APA/AERA/NCME test standards (1999) maintain that psychologists should use the most recent version of an assessment instrument when conducting an evaluation of a child's abilities. The NASP Principles for Professional Ethics (2000) speaks to this mandate as well: "School psychologists.[choose] instruments and techniques.that have up-to-date standardization data and are applicable and appropriate for the benefit of the child." The profession has instead established a community standard for the transition to newly revised IQ instruments: Ranging from 6 months to one year, this transition period has been tacitly agreed upon by trainers of school psychologists and other leaders in the field (B. A. Bracken, personal communication, June 30, 2003; T. Fagan, personal communication, June 29, 2003; R. W. Kamphaus, personal communication, June 29, 2003; C. R. Reynolds, personal communication, June 30, 2003). However, the lack of more formal or precise guidance could potentially lead to poor practice and inadequate programming for children, particularly in states that more rigidly adhere to mandatory cut-off scores. When standards are loosely defined and predicated upon a tacitly agreed upon heuristic, this could ultimately impact the services children receive.

Extractions: PREFACE The University reserves the right to cancel or alter any part of this catalog without notice (subject to the following): The course offerings of The University of Memphis are continually under examination and revision. This bulletin presents the offerings and requirements in effect at the time of publication, but is no guarantee that they will not be changed or revoked. The specific courses or activities constituting the degree requirements for any program are subject to substitution at any time prior to completion by the student. This bulletin is not intended to state contractual terms and does not constitute a contract between the student and The University of Memphis. The University of Memphis reserves the right to make changes as required in course offerings, curricula, academic policies and other rules and regulations affecting students to be effective whenever determined by the institution. These changes will govern current and formerly enrolled students. Enrollment of all students is subject to these conditions. Any fees, charges or costs, and all academic regulations set forth in this bulletin are subject to change at any time. All courses, programs, and activities described in this catalog are subject to cancellation or termination by The University of Memphis or the Tennessee Board of Regents at any time. The University of Memphis provides the opportunity for students to increase their knowledge by providing programs of instruction in the various disciplines and programs through faculty who, in the opinion of the institutiuon, are trained and qualified for teaching at the college level. However, the acquisition of knowledge by any student is contingent upon the student's desire and ability to learn and the application of appropriate study techniques to any course or program. Thus, The University of Memphis must necessarily limit representation of student preparedness in any field of study to that competency demonstrated at that specific point in time at which appropriate academic measurements were taken to certify course or program completion.

Extractions: FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Paul Clark April 15, 1998 (Thompson) John Brennan (Levin) REGULATORY IMPROVEMENT BILL (S. 981) EARNS WIDESPREAD SUPPORT Washington, DCSenate Governmental Affairs Chairman Fred Thompson (R-TN), along with Senator Carl Levin (D-MI), said they were pleased with the broad and growing support for their bill, the Regulatory Improvement Act (S. 981). The measure, they said, should be brought to the Senate floor later this Spring for consideration. "Our legislation injects a great deal more common sense into the rulemaking process," Thompson said. "Better use of modern decision-making tools such as risk assessment, cost-benefit analysis and peer review will help ensure that agencies produce the kind of sensible regulations the public has a right to expect." "Support for the bill is strong and growing," Levin said, "including enthusiastic endorsement by the National Governors Association, the U.S. Conference of Mayors, the American Farm Bureau, the National Academy of Sciences, and the American Council on Education, among others." Levin added, "We have a real shot at getting a better, more effective rulemaking process with this bill, and there is no doubt that improving the rulemaking process will result in better regulation." "The bill is based on the premise that Americans have a right to know how their regulations are made," Thompson said. "This is not a novel concept. Unfortunately it has not been a consistent part of the federal regulatory process. But it is a concept that both Republicans and Democrats canand havesupported."

Extractions: Standards Oak Ridge schools, public and private, have a proven record of student success. Oak Ridge Public Schools When Suzanne Baktash researched high schools for her two children, Oak Ridge High School kept rising to the top of her list. As a result, Cyrus and Suzanne Baktash moved their family from Farragut, a community 20 miles away, to live within Oak Ridge school district boundaries. Suzanne says she wishes the family had moved sooner. "Not only is the community more to my liking, there are opportunities that our kids missed because we didn't come here early enough," Suzanne notes. Through her research, Suzanne discovered that Oak Ridge, with a diverse student population, was only seven points behind a private Knoxville school in Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) math scores and far ahead of another nearby public school. The range of advanced placement courses offered in Oak Ridge and the opportunities available for students to advance in certain subjects far ahead of grade level were also appealing.

Extractions: Tennessee Association of Colleges for Teacher Education A Brief History and Remembrances Compiled by Jim Stamper, Belmont University One of the driving forces in the beginning of TACTE was Jim McComas of the University of Tennessee, who spent a great deal of time getting the state unit organized. He involved several others, because John Gaines of King College remembers being part of planning and organizational meetings in 1973. An invitation regarding beginning TACTE went out to various teacher educators April 5, 1973, and an organizational meeting April 30, 1973 at George Peabody College Òsowed the seedsÓ for a state-wide organization of teacher educators. Dale Doak and Jim McComas of UT were two participants. In the early days, the number of attendees at TACTE conferences was so low that the meetings were often held in a classroom at UT Nashville or Peabody College. In fact, the first meeting was May 16, 1974, at George Peabody College, followed by the spring meeting at the Nashville headquarters of Tennessee Education Association. Other meetings the remainder of the decade were at NashvilleÕs Rodeway Inn and Ramada Inn, South. For the fall meeting, 1979, TACTE held its conference for the first time in a Tennessee state park (Henry Horton State Park).
