This is the VOA Special English Education Report, from voaspecialenglish.com A new college guide in the United States compares educational requirements in seven subjects. These include math, science, writing and United States history or government. The other subjects are economics, foreign language and literature. The free online guide is from the American Council of Trustees and Alumni. The council is a nonprofit group that supports liberal arts education. Its president, Anne Neal, says these areas of knowledge are needed to succeed in a twenty-first century society and an increasingly connected world. Yet she told VOA’s Faiza Elmasry it was surprising how many students can graduate with, in her words, a “thin education.” Forty-two of the one hundred colleges and universities surveyed received the lowest marks. This meant they required two or fewer of the seven subjects. Five schools received a top grade for requiring six subjects. These were Brooklyn College in New York City, Texas A&M, the University of Texas-Austin, West Point and the University of Arkansas. Robert Costrell is professor of education reform and economics at the University of Arkansas. He says many, if not all, of the top American colleges once had a core curriculum — a set of courses required for all students. But over the years, many have dropped these requirements. Or they have “watered them down,” Professor Costrell says, into what became known as distribution requirements. This system lets a …

Adult and vocational education teachers work in four main areas—adult vocational-technical education, adult remedial education, adult continuing education, and prebaccalaureate training. Training requirements vary by State and by subject. In general, teachers need work or other experiences in their field, and a license or certificate in fields where these usually are required for full professional status. In some cases, particularly at educational institutions, a masters or doctoral degree is required to teach nonvocational courses which can be applied towards a 4-year degree program.

Introduction

Standards refer to the systems and procedures developed by professional development practitioners to enhance the effectiveness of the system (CICA, 2007). Professional standards describe the important skills, knowledge, and attitudes that the professional is expected to demonstrate. Standards constitute the ‘critical knowledge, skills and attitudes needed to perform a specific role effectively’. They explain the primary components of performance rather than providing a comprehensive list of responsibilities. Furthermore, they serve to specify as to what performance or behaviours an institution is particularly looking for. The extent to which professional standards have been met can be assessed via performance indicators set by the authorities (MOE, 2009).  They describe what teachers need to know and do to provide relevant and valuable learning experiences for learners and groups of individuals.

Standards are not only useful for the teachers in their profession but also for other relevant practitioners to enhance the credibility of the system (Khan 2004).

Mostly it is observed that teachers have invariably lagged behind in developing core competencies and knowledge, fundamental to their profession. These core competencies and knowledge are the pillars on which subsequent knowledge and skills are built upon. (UNESCO & USAID 2005). Though we are spending a lot of amount on teacher education system, according to a study conducted by the Academy of Educational Development (AED).Producing low-grade trained teachers at such a high cost should be a matter of concern. The National Education Census data and a number of studies indicate that professional preparation of teachers in Pakistan is neither standardized nor based on acceptable professional standards (Butt, 2008). We have introduced many new concepts but have failed to achieve the desired outcomes due to non-implementation of proper professional standards (AED 2006).007

Quality assurance requires professional development standards of teacher education and an effective mechanism and procedure of accreditation of teacher education programs and institutions. Various countries have developed standards according to their teacher education needs.

NCATE ( National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education)

In US, NCATE was founded in 1954. This National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE) is officially recognized by the US Department of Education as an accrediting body for institutions that prepare teachers and other professional personnel for work in pre, elementary, and secondary schools. NCATE helps to ensure that the accredited institutions produce caring, competent and qualified teachers and other school personnel who can help all students learn.

The NCATE accreditation process determines whether schools, colleges, and departments of education, and other organizations preparing teachers, meet demanding standards for the preparation of teachers and other school personnel. Through this process, NCATE assures the public that the graduates of accredited institutions have acquired the knowledge, skills, and dispositions necessary to help all students learn (Cibulka, 2008).

NCATE Unit Standards

The NCATE Unit standards have evolved over a period of time and are revised from time to time. The latest version was developed in 2002 and is currently being used to accredit teacher education institutions. It recognized twenty subject specialty professional associations in addition to six unit accreditation standards.

These standards are developed by groups that are nationally recognized in the teaching field. These standards are designed to assess teachers’ performance (Standards 1 & 2) and institutional capacity (Standards 3-6). Each of the six core standards has three components.

Conceptual Framework

The conceptual framework(s) is established to share the vision for a unit’s efforts in preparing educators to work effectively in schools and also provides direction for programs, courses, teaching, candidate performance, scholarship, service, and unit accountability. These six standards are as;

Standard 1: Candidate Knowledge, Skills, and Dispositions

Standard 2: Assessment System and Unit Evaluation

Standard 3: Field Experiences and Clinical Practice

Standard 4: Diversity

Standard 5: Faculty Qualifications, Performance, and Development

Standard 6:Unit Governance and Resources

Each standard includes three types of behaviour demonstrated by the professionals:

Unacceptable
Acceptable
Target

NCATE standards are based on the belief that “all children can and should learn“.

In order to attain this goal, NCATE accredits schools, colleges, and departments of education (professional education units) in U.S. colleges and universities along with non-university entities that prepare educators. These schools, colleges, departments of education, and non-university entities have primary responsibility preparing teachers and other school professionals. Now quality of education is a matter of great concern in Pakistan as in other developing countries. Keeping in view the global needs and challenges to teacher education, teams of experts and scholars are working on accreditation of teacher education programs and institutions.

ACTE (Accreditation Council of Teacher Education)

The Federal Government in the Gazette of Pakistan, August 30, 2007 Part (111) has published the notification of the Accreditation Council for Teacher Education vide No.10-25/HEC/A&C/2004/2517, Islamabad. www.acte.org.

It can be seen in NCATE standards that they require educators to demonstrate the knowledge, skills, and dispositions to work successfully with children of all races, ethnicities, disabilities/exceptionalities, and different socioeconomic groups and the mission of ACTE is to ensure high quality teacher education programs as an integral part of higher education through a sustained & professional internal academic audit & external accreditation.

Conceptual Framework

A knowledge based shared vision of the institution about mission goals and objectives, for preparing committed and competent professionals to provide guidance for action on all aspects of the program i.e., nature of curriculum and instruction, practice teaching, system of assessment, adequateness of resources and infrastructure, efficiency of management and status of research, scholarship and equity. Each standard has different sub standards to provide complete directions to the professionals to demonstrate their knowledge and competency in this field. These standards are described as:

Standard 1: Curriculum and Instruction

Standard 2: Assessment and Evaluation System

Standard 3: Physical Infrastructure, Academic Facilities and

Standard 4: Resources and Management

Standard 5: Research, Scholarship and Equity

Standard 6:Community Links and Outreach

Comparison between the standards of NCATE & ACTE

NCATE Standard 1: Candidate Knowledge, Skills, and Professional Dispositions.

Candidates preparing to work in schools as teachers or other school professionals know and demonstrate the content knowledge, pedagogical content knowledge and skills, pedagogical and professional knowledge and skills, and professional dispositions necessary to help all students5 learn.

ACTE Standard 1: Curriculum and Instruction

Curriculum is properly designed to attain the National Professional Standards for Teachers relating to knowledge, skills and dispositions, is approved by the competent authority and is disseminated to all concerned.
