This book provides teacher educators, administrators, practicing teachers who work with preservice teachers, policymakers, and researchers with information on the conceptual, research, and application areas of service-learning in preservice teacher education.

Studies of Excellence in Teacher Education
Author: Kenneth M. ZeichnerPublisher: Aacte
ISBN:
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 128
Book Description
This book presents case studies of two highly successful teacher education programs. It is part of a three-volume series that includes seven case studies. The book documents the goals, strategies, content, and processes of teacher education programs that are widely acknowledged as exemplars for preparing prospective teachers to engage in skillful, learner-centered practice. Using observations, interviews, and surveys, researchers examined all aspects of each program of study and clinical practice. The book documents the capabilities of prospective teachers who graduate from these programs by focusing on the teachers' own work during teacher education and in the field, interviews with faculty and administrators in the schools where graduates teach, and surveys of principals. The book also examines what policies, organizational features, resources, and relationships have enabled these programs to succeed. Some of the programs' common features include a clear, shared vision of good teaching; well-defined standards of practice and performance; extended clinical experiences; and extensive use of case study, teacher research, performance assessment, and portfolio evaluation. The two case studies are "Ability-Based Teacher Education: Elementary Teacher Education at Alverno College" (Kenneth Zeichner) and "Learning to Become a Teacher: The Wheelock Way" (Lynn Miller and David Silvernail).

Book Description
This monograph presents information about institutions of higher education where teachers are educated and about the faculty, students, and programs of these institutions. Information is presented under six headings: (1) "Introduction and Methodology" (Gary Galluzzo); (2) "Institutional Characteristics" (Richard Arends and Gary Galluzzo); (3) "Students: A Profile" (Antoine Garibaldi and Nancy Zimpher); (4) "The Elementary Education Professoriate" (Mary Kluender and Edward Ducharme); (5) "Student and Faculty Perceptions of Program Quality" (Kenneth Howey); and (6) "Multiple Purposes for Using Data in Teacher Education" (Sam Yarger). Ninety institutions taken from the AACTE membership list of 713 institutions constituted the sample; 1,141 elementary education preservice teachers and 251 professors in elementary education returned their questionnaires. Faculty and student questionnaires supplied demographic information as well as information such as age, gender, race/ethnicity, and salary; and respondents' opinions concerning the quality of programs, the rigor of coursework and requirements, and students' future teaching plans. The institutional questionnaire solicited information characterizing the institutions: their enrollments, the academic abilities of their enrollees, and selected features of the elementary education programs offered. Findings are presented in tables and graphs accompanied by narrative discussion. (JD)
