5 Introduction MCOE Teacher Credentialing Program/Induction The MCOE Teacher Credentialing Program/Induction represents the culmination of the university/ college teacher preparation program and is the pathway to a clear credential. It provides meaningful opportunities for the Participating Teacher to apply the basic principles, theories, methods and techniques learned in pre-service coursework. Participating Teachers demonstrate and apply what they have learned into effective use of classroom teaching strategies that are reflective of 21st century learning. PROGRAM HISTORY & ORGANIZATION Beginning Teacher Support and Assessment (BTSA)/Induction The original vision of the Beginning Teacher Support and Assessment program was to develop a coherent system of support for new teachers through a comprehensive formative assessment program. SB 1422 authorized the BTSA Program in The goals of the program were to improve teacher candidate performance, to identify and build upon effective teaching strategies for students from diverse backgrounds, and to retain effective and highly qualified teachers. A pivotal year for BTSA came in with the adoption of AB1266. This adoption was the outcome of BTSA leadership spending years on development, data analysis, and pertinent validity studies to establish a Statewide Induction System and the California Standards for the Teaching Profession (CSTP). In 1998, based on a review panel s final recommendations, SB2042 was adopted. The new bill outlined multiple routes for obtaining teaching credentials, and highlighted a new two-level teacher credentialing system. The foundation for this new credentialing system at every level, has been the vision of effective teachers supported by a trained mentor, and guided by the California Standards for the Teaching Profession (CSTP). In 2008, California streamlined the induction process by adopting Induction Standards and a corresponding formative assessment system for California teachers, Formative Assessment for Classroom Teachers (FACT). Additionally, Induction programs were brought into the fold of the state accreditation system that coincides with the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing (CCTC) university/college accreditation system. The new Induction Standards are designed to build upon participants pre-service educational foundations. In , FACT was further streamlined and modified to: better meet the individual needs of new teachers, include the language and reflection around Common Core State Standards, Next Generation Science Standards, and the new ELD framework, and facilitate the inclusion of the districts Local Control Accountability Plan (LCAP) goals and priorities within the new teacher s Induction process. As teacher induction continues to evolve in response to California s changing educational landscape, MCOE Teacher Credentialing Program/Induction is committed to improving our program to meet our county s diverse needs. 3
6 THE PARTICIPATING TEACHER What will the Participating Teacher Experience? The Participating Teacher (PT) is able to enroll in the Induction Program through their employing district. Throughout the two-year program, the PT will acquire and demonstrate the knowledge, skills, and abilities of effective teaching (as outlined in the California Standards for the Teaching Profession). The program elements include: The Plan, Teach, Reflect, Apply Cycle (PTRA) This cycle is based on student achievement standards and learning styles. The teacher plans, teaches, and reflects on lessons through a variety of lenses, and evaluates the success of lessons based on student learning. Through the process of reflection, the teacher then applies new knowledge to develop a set of next steps to plan and improve student achievement. The teacher is able to use the PTRA cycle to build confidence and competence. The Inquiry Process Participating Teachers participate in a focused inquiry around their current practice as a professional educator. They self-assess on the demonstration and application of: the California Standards for the Teaching Profession, state and district curriculum frameworks and instructional materials, and the new California State Standards and performance standards. As part of the inquiry process, the Participating Teacher is given the opportunity to consider and analyze what works for his or her particular teaching and learning style with feedback from his or her peers and colleagues, and explores research on the subject. Reflection and conducting action research allows the teacher to collect evidence from his or her students and analyze and reflect on that evidence to see how to best meet students diverse needs and determine next steps in growing his or her practice. Collaborative Networking and Sharing Each PT develops a collaborative style in teaching and learning, which involving networking with colleagues and exploring and sharing a variety of effective teaching strategies. An Individual Learning Plan (ILP) Every teacher who participates in the Induction Program will know the value of having a plan for his or her own professional growth in developing skills and expertise as an educator. Over time, teachers growth will be documented on the California Continuum of Teaching Practice (CTP). What are the requirements of the Participating Teacher? The MCOE Teacher Credentialing Program/Induction ensures that the PT receives individualized support each year, based on prior experience and assessed need by: Attending Induction Orientations, which are required and held at individual districts. The focus of these sessions is to orient PT s to the program and familiarize teachers with the pathway to clear their credential(s) through Induction. Participating in Collaborative Meetings with a qualified and trained Induction Coach (IC), at least one hour per week. Completing Formal and Informal Observations between PT, IC, and other colleagues (as appropriate). Demonstrating and Applying the Induction Standards, Common Core State Standards, and the California Standards for the Teaching Profession (CSTP). Participating in Induction Conferences that provide professional learning opportunities centered on the support for developing and following their ILP. Participating Teachers attend two Induction Conferences and experience collaboration and professional networking opportunities with other new teachers across our county and local experts. In this supportive environment, Participating Teachers have opportunities for sharing best practices with Multiple Subject, Single Subject, and Education Specialist colleagues from other districts. 4
7 What are the benefits for the Participating Teachers? Professional growth based on district goals and priorities targeting self-identified areas of growth with a highly qualified Induction Coach Release time to observe classrooms, as well as be observed, by their highly qualified Induction Coach Recommendation to the CCTC for the California Clear Credential is provided when all requirements of the Induction Program have been completed Continuing education semester units through a university What should a PT do if they are not getting the support they need? The PT should contact the District Program Advisor with any concerns about the support that he or she is receiving. After consultation, if the IC is not an adequate fit for the PT, the District Program Advisor will initiate a change in IC. Is it required for Participants to share their Formative Assessment work with their Site Administrator? As PTs works with their Site Administrator to set annual goals and to demonstrate professional growth required of all teachers, PTs may choose to share ILP forms and other evidence collected during the Induction process to successfully document meeting employment evaluation goals. However, district or site administrator performance evaluations will not be considered in lieu of program completion requirements. To ensure the PT is fully supported in meeting all program requirements in a timely manner, or if the PT is egregious in their non-compliance with Induction Program requirements, the Site Administrator may be included as part of the support team for the PT. THE INDUCTION COACH Who qualifies to be an Induction Coach? An Induction Coach is a teacher with a California Clear Credential who works and communicates effectively with colleagues and demonstrates effective coaching and interpersonal skills. While exemplifying the knowledge, skills, and abilities of excellent teaching, as defined in the California Standards for the Teaching Profession, he or she engages in reflective practice to continuously improve as a professional educator. He or she implements the Common Core State Standards by using a wide range of teaching strategies to meet the needs of our culturally and linguistically diverse student population. What are the requirements of the Induction Coach? The MCOE-TCP/Induction Program ensures that each PT has the support of a well-qualified IC who will: Meet individually, and on a regular basis, with the PT to provide continuous support and collaborate on Induction activities Attend scheduled seminars/trainings and follow the program guidelines Assist PTs with acquisition of materials and resources, learning site procedures and routines, and meeting site staff members Facilitate and promote the use of district provided release time for PT observation Document work by submitting collaboration logs each month to the District Program Advisor 5
8 What is the role of the Induction Coach? The Induction Coach meets weekly with the PT to observe, collaborate, and provide support during the two years of the Induction Program. An important element of a new teacher s success is having an engaging Induction experience through the supportive and positive relationship with the Induction Coach. Effective support occurs during collaborative learning opportunities of observation, inquiry, and the development of action plans focused on improving instructional practice and student achievement. What are the benefits for the Induction Coach? Gain or enhance interpersonal communication skills around coaching, Engage and learn from the formative assessment process and support a Participating Teacher s grow his or her teaching practice, Share instructional ideas and materials with colleagues, Opportunity to build capacity for teacher excellence within the district Professional development in classroom instruction, mentoring, coaching, and teacher leadership Continuing education units over two years; units can be purchased for an additional fee paid directly to a university ROLE OF SITE ADMINISTRATOR Research has demonstrated that Site Administrators have a tremendous impact on the success of beginning teachers. District Program Advisors and the Induction leadership team work with Site Administrators on the importance of their role in supporting PTs success. The Standards of Quality and Effectiveness for Professional Teacher Induction Programs require that Site Administrators: Attend the Induction Site Administrator training Conduct Site Orientations for new teachers Enable new teachers to spend time with their Induction Coach Allow opportunities for observations Protect new teachers from additional duties, committees, and adjunct responsibilities Respect confidentiality between the Induction Coach and Participating Teacher LICENSURE vs EMPLOYMENT Completion of the MCOE-TCP/Induction Program and a recommendation for the Clear Credential does not imply or ensure continued employment in the PT s district. UNIVERSITY CREDIT University credit is offered for all participants in the Induction program. Participating Teachers and Induction Coaches in the MCOE-TCP/ Induction may purchase units from a university for their participation in formative assessment. In order to receive these units, participants must complete all program requirements, including FACT events and seminars, as evidenced by completing required documents, collaborative logs, and IIPs. 6
