"New York City took a big, important step toward teacher preparation reform this week. The city's department of education, in a first-ever move nationwide, released scorecards on the 12 teacher education programs that supply the most educators to the city. They judge the quality of the programs based on new teachers' performance and success (or lack thereof) in the classroom.
The scorecards highlight colleges that are graduating teachers who are highly effective, specialized, and more likely to stick with the profession for more than three years. It shines a desperately needed light on teacher preparation, one that panelists pushed for during a YEP-DC event panel this month. The event, called "Teaching the Teachers," invited experts, researchers, and practitioners to weigh in on the all-important goal of strengthening teacher training across the nation."
