In the programs studied, support is structured at three levels: (1) program-provided supervisors; (2) site-based mentors; and (3) peer cohort support. All six programs had some variation of these three, which interweave to form a new-teacher safety net. Rather than strand candidates to sink or swim, support structures ensure that candidates will fulfill their promise or, as McKibbin puts it, that "they will obtain the skills to succeed and the commitment to stay."

AofW Mentorship Program Georgia State University Leadership Academy for Women Capitalize Your Assets Need Adobe Acrobat reader? Objectives The AofW Professional Development and Leadership Program was established in accordance with the AofW Ad Hoc Task Force report's (PDF) recommendation for campus-based training for professional development skills to prepare junior and mid-level women for promotion to senior faculty and administrative positions at Georgia State University. Development of the program is based upon activities in the American Council of Education (ACE) and the Office of Women in Higher Education (OWHE). The program represents an individualistic approach for the collective enhancement of women faculty leadership development as a whole with the goal of increasing the number of women gaining higher positions in the university. History Conceived in 2002, Deans of all 6 Georgia State University Colleges and the Library were asked to nominate women who demonstrated leadership abilities and administrative skill with the potential for advancement. Participants were invited by AofW to join the program and included 16 women Assistant and Associate Professors. Our program is based upon the conceptualization that "leadership" encompasses dual aspects of women's professional development: 1) attention to individual empowerment and growth in the collective environment of women; and 2) acquisition of knowledge and honing of skills for application in the organizational environment. Particularly for women in higher education, the two roles must merge to navigate advancement in an academic institutional structure that historically views the polarization of administrative leadership roles for faculty and staff and of styles of leadership among women and men.

The Impact of Social Interaction and Reward System Norms on Underrepresented Faculty , by Annie Gubitosi-White This case study examines the institution's cultural norms and how these norms affect underrepresented faculty. Study results identify social interaction and reward process norms and indicate that underrepresented faculty experience these norms differently than majority faculty. It also suggests that underrepresented faculty are often disadvantaged by these norms. See Diversity Digest for a study synopsis.

GEORGIA Summary evaluation. Georgia's assessment system needs a complete overhaul. Elements of the state testing program are on hold, but it is not yet certain what will replace them. In any case, the state relies too heavily on multiple-choice, uses NRTs, has a high school exit exam, and tests too frequently. Thus, the whole system, not just parts of it, needs to be redesigned. Reporting of data by sub-populations should be implemented and inclusion should be strengthened. Professional development appears somewhat misdirected toward test interpretation rather than classroom assessment. A more comprehensive review process is strongly needed. Standard 1: Assessment supports important student learning. The state mandated Quality Core Curriculum (QCC), which contains the state's standards and goals, is currently being revised. The current version is no longer required. QCC has included standards for English language arts, math, science, social studies, various arts, physical education, health, foreign languages, vocational education and various high school elective courses. The Georgia Kindergarten Assessment Program (GKAP) an individually administered, criterion-referenced test with a mix of multiple-choice items, performance testing and a teacher observation element used to assess readiness for first grade is also being redesigned. Until the redesign is completed, however, the GKAP remains a requirement. Skills assessed are communication, logical/math, personal/physical and social.
