New
No Child Left Behind Flexibility, U.S. Dept. of Education
- States are now preparing to meet the 2005-06 deadline
for ensuring all of their teachers are highly qualified. Ahead
of that deadline, the Department is providing three new areas
of flexibility for teachers to demonstrate that they are highly
qualified. This flexibility will benefit teachers, local and
state administrators, and most importantly--students.
National
Board for Professional Teaching Standards - Leading
the way in making teaching a profession dedicated to student
learning and to upholding high standards for professional
performance. We have raised the standards for teachers, strengthened
their educational preparation through the standards, and created
performance-based assessments that demonstrate accomplished
application of the standards.
National
Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education
- NCATE’s performance-based system of
accreditation fosters competent classroom teachers and other
educators who work to improve the education of all P–12
students. NCATE believes every student deserves a caring,
competent, and highly qualified teacher.
ProfessionalTeacher.com
- Offers educators complete, easy-to-understand
information regarding their state's continuing education requirements.
In addition to providing detailed information about the requirements,
the site provides easy access to all necessary state forms,
a step-by-step guide to teaching certificate renewal, access
to professional development opportunities, as well as complete
contact information for those who seek additional details.
The
Praxis Series: Professional Assessments for Beginning Teachers
- Study guides are created by the people who
develop The Praxis Series tests. Each guide provides a combination
of test preparation and practice.
