Nation's biggest teacher prep program revamps training
ASU undergraduates must prove classroom mastery
A recent article in Education Week looks at ASU's new flagship undergraduate teacher education program. The iTeach program has been successful in garnering grant funding and integrating a new clinical-based model for training teachers.
Stephen Sawchuk, author of the article, writes: "The goal of the project, according to its leaders, is to graduate teachers who, in their first year on the job, match the effectiveness of second-year teachers. Getting there has meant no less than an entire shift in philosophy, according to Mari Koerner, the dean of ASU's Mary Lou Fulton Teachers College."
