43. ‘Fast Track’ Teacher-Certification Efforts Are Examined A new study looking at “fast track” teachercertification programs in four programs for certifying teachers in california, Connecticut, Louisiana, http://www.edweek.org/agentk-12/articles/2005/04/20/32alternative.h24.html

Search Subscribe Printer-friendly version E-mail this article Published: April 20, 2005 ‘Fast Track’ Teacher-Certification Efforts Are Examined By Debra Viadero Montreal A new study looking at “fast track” teacher-certification programs in four states highlights some of the trade-offs states face as they seek quicker ways to stem teacher shortages and get qualified teachers into classrooms. The study, produced by researchers at Harvard University’s graduate school of education, examines alternative-route programs for certifying teachers in California, Connecticut, Louisiana, and Massachusetts. Researchers presented some of their findings from the project here last week at the annual meeting of the American Educational Research Association. The Washington-based AERA’s April 11-15 gathering drew more than 12,000 researchers from the United States and 52 other countries. Such certification programs now operate in at least 46 states as an alternative to traditional, university-based programs for preparing teachers. But the idea of alternative routes covers a wide range of approaches, not all of which are considered fast-track. The gamut includes, for instance, homegrown programs run by districts, condensed university programs for career-switchers, stand-alone state-run programs, and private efforts such as Teach for America, which recruits high-achieving college graduates for teaching stints in hard-to-staff schools. Susan Moore Johnson, the lead researcher on the Harvard project, said the fast-track programs her research group studied attracted prospective teachers because they offered quick, convenient training—usually no more than five to eight weeks over the summer—and because they charged low or no tuition.

48. Alternative Teacher Certification Alternative certification in california. teacher Education Quarterly, 15 (3), 4959.McKibbin, M. and Ray, L. (1994). A guide for alternative certification http://www.aesa.us/Pubs/99perspect/altern_teacher_certif.html

Alternative Teacher Certification by Carol Newman, Doctoral Student University of North Texas, Denton, TX and Kay Thomas, Senior Research Analyst Texas Center for Educational Research, Austin, TX For more than a decade, alternative certification has become increasingly available as a route to teacher certification. In Texas, for example, nearly a third of the 87 teacher training institutions offer alternative certification, either as an option within the teacher preparation program or as the entire program. Education service agencies (ESAs) have become increasingly involved in teacher certification. Of the 28 Texas alternative certification programs (ACPs), 13representing nearly halfare located in ESAs ("State Board for Educator Certification," 1999). The Demand for Alternative Teacher Certification Subject areas such as math and science have suffered from teacher shortages for the past two decades (Darling-Hammond, Hudson and Kirby, 1989). Although there were many able scientists and mathematicians interested in teaching, they were "unable to smoothly enter the field" (Dill, 1994). Similarly, the field of special education has also been faced with teacher shortages because of the influx of special needs students in schools. This shortage has prompted educators to explore alternative means of preparing certified and qualified special education teachers (Rosenberg and Rock, 1994). Another issue impacting teacher supply and demand is the decline in the number of minorities entering teaching fields (Stoddart and Floden, 1995). It is projected that by 2020 about 40 percent of the K-12 school population will be minority students, with little hope for the percentage of minority teachers to parallel this figure (Pallas, Natriello, and McDill, 1989; Zeichner, 1993). The importance of teachers as role modelsespecially teachers from students' own cultural grouphas long been recognized; thus, this shortage is viewed as a major detriment to the education of minority students (Middleton, Mason, Stilwell and Parker, 1988).

Teacher Quality and Alternative Certification Programs STATEMENT OF DR. C. EMILY FEISTRITZER President National Center for Education Information Washington, DC HOUSE COMMITTEE ON EDUCATION AND THE WORKFORCE SUBCOMMITTEE ON POSTSECONDARY EDUCATION, TRAINING AND LIFE-LONG LEARNING Thursday, May 13, 1999 2175 Rayburn House Office Building Washington, DC The Administration and the Congress of the United States are being called upon again to respond to the growing need for more and better teachers. There is mounting concern about teacher preparation and the quality of the teaching force. Alarms have also been sounded about the numbers of teachers who are teaching "out of field", i.e., teaching a subject for which they have neither an academic major nor a minor. While none of these issues warrants the degree of hand wringing the news of them has generated, they do point to some serious problems in this country regarding how teachers are trained, licensed, recruited and hired. I have been asked by you to address the issue of alternative teacher certification routes and the benefits of these programs in bringing quality individuals into the teaching profession. Let me begin by providing some history of how alternative teacher certification came to be. Historically, colleges of education have been the primary source of elementary and secondary school teachers. The traditional route by which one became a teacher was to complete a teacher education program at a college or university that had been approved by the state licensing authority. School districts then recruited directly from the institutions within their states that produced teachers who had gone through such state- approved programs.

Holly Zanville, Associate Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs, and Andrew Duncan, Director, the Southwestern Oregon University Center conducted the study. The study's key purposes were to: Identify states (teacher licensing boards, state departments of education) that have a requirement of cultural competence for licensure of K-12 teachers (and other educators). Obtain a copy of definitions of cultural competence used in any of the states.

New Skills for New Schools: Preparing Teachers in Family Involvement Angela M. Shartrand, Heather B. Weiss Holly M. Kreider , and M. Elena Lopez , Harvard Family Research Project II. Status of Teacher Preparation in Family Involvement The Role of State Certification These findings lead to the conclusion that family involvement was not a high priority in state certification. In general, state certification did not encourage teacher preparation in family involvement, and thus lagged behind reform movements and school practice. Comprehensive teacher certification requirements in California were one exception to this finding. Early childhood teacher certification requirements in California (Commission on Teacher Credentialing, 1991) provide a clear and comprehensive definition of family involvement that can guide teacher education programs. In particular, these requirements specify that early education work must include parent involvement, defined as: an orientation which includes the family as an integral part of teaching the young child an environment which encourages cooperation and collaboration among the children, educators, family, and community
