Refining Pennsylvania's Developing Model of Teacher Education.
Overview & Synopsis
By describing and defending six assumptions about teacher education, the Pennsylvania Association of Liberal Arts Colleges for the Advancement of Teaching (PALACAT) defines the purposes, goals, needs, and foundations of teacher education. The role of research in teacher education and current practices in teacher education are analyzed, and a four stage sequence for teacher education that meets the position statements of PALACAT is proposed. The program includes: (1) a strong undergraduate base of foundational studies blended with field experiences; (2) a closely supervised one-year period that initiates the beginning teacher into the profession; (3) a period of continuing induction that enables teachers to develop skills and attitudes necessary for full professional status; and (4) an ongoing program of inservice education and professional development.
