Glossary Introduction Academic Year Reporting to the Secretary Aggregate Pass Rate ... Waiver Introduction Section 207 of the Higher Education Act, as amended, mandated the creation of a new reporting system on the quality of teacher preparation. Institutions of higher education with teacher preparation programs enrolling students receiving aid authorized by the Act must report annually to states on the pass rates of their graduates (or program completers) and other program information every April. States receiving funds authorized under the Act are required to report annually to the U.S. Department of Education on a number of aspects concerning the quality of teacher preparation in their state every October. The Secretary of Education is also required by section 207 to prepare annually a report on the quality of teacher preparation in the nation for the Congress and the public starting in April 2002. In mandating this new reporting system, section 207 also required that the Department of Education's National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) develop key definitions for terms and uniform reporting methods (including key definitions for the consistent reporting of pass rates on each assessment used by states in certifying or licensing new teachers). The NCES product is the Reference and Reporting Guide for Preparing State and Institutional Reports on the Quality of Teacher Preparation

In the State Departments of Education directory, RNT provides resources developed by the National Center for Alternative Certification: a coded list of alternative certification programs offered in each state, and an alternative licensure key that describes details about the types of programs offered by each state.

SEARCH: AACTE Awards Archived News Headlines Grants and Awards ... Resources and Conferences Educating School Leaders Educating School Leaders , a study by Arthur Levine, president of Columbia University's Teachers College, denounces the quality of most of the country's preparation programs for school leaders. Issuing a cry to replace the Ed.D. degree with a new master's degree in educational administration, the report says current Ed.D. programs' quality ranges from "inadequate to appalling." The study criticizes educational leadership programs for being "engaged in a counterproductive 'race to the bottom,' in which they compete for students by lowering admission standards, watering down coursework and offering faster and less demanding degrees." College Readiness Crisis Spurs Call for Change by ACT in Nation's Core High School Curriculum IOWA CITY, Iowa—Even with a diploma in hand, many high school graduates do not have all of the skills to succeed in college-level coursework or workforce training. This is the conclusion of a new report from ACT, titled Crisis at the Core: Preparing All Students for College and Work . Among the findings, only 22 percent of the 1.2 million high school graduates who took the ACT Assessment in 2004 achieved scores that would deem them ready for college in all three basic academic areas—English, math, and science.

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.

Education degree programs during the 1950s to 1980 generally were found to be deficient in content knowledge; prospective teachers learned how to teach, not what to teach. In contrast, alternative licensing candidates usually have already acquired knowledge of a particular discipline or content area in study for their bachelor's degree. They also have broad general content knowledge from the core programs of their college or university. Researchers offered this qualification early on as a reason for supporting alternative programs.

Tuesday September 20, 2005 DOE Announces $488 million to Pay for Private School As if the post-Katrina political climate isn't super-charged enough, the federal DOE has included $488 million in its Hurricane Katrina aid package for parents of private school children displaced by the storm. This immediately attracted criticism because it sounds like a revival of a voucher program. Be that as it may, it makes sense to help every entity which has been affected by Hurricane Katrina. While the McKinney-Vento Act gets the displaced kids into a classroom without question, somebody's got to pay for all this largesse. $2.1 billion will help public schools cover the unbudgeted expenses of educating additional students. $488 million will compensate parents who have had to find alternative private schools for their children.
