Abstract | This paper describes West Virginia University's Benedum Collaborative Model of Teacher Education, which involved the university and 21 Professional Development Schools (PDSs). The model is based on a set of novice teacher characteristics and effective teacher education program characteristics. It is a 5-year, dual-degree teacher preparation program. One of its most critical attributes is a series of intense clinical experiences that occur at the PDSs. All of the PDSs were chosen because of their commitment to partnering with the university in their efforts related to school renewal/professional development and to preparing the next generation of teachers. All practica in the teacher education program are attached to courses in the pedagogy core. The courses and practica are collaboratively planned and closely linked. All of the PDSs were asked to develop strategic plans to provide guidance in the areas of professional development, school renewal, and partnering with the university. This paper describes the experiences of one PDS, Suncrest Primary. Efforts included initiation of a graduate assistant/site coordinator model in which a full-time graduate student was employed to partner teach with the site coordinator. Evaluation of this effort indicated that it had a very positive impact on everyone involved. (Contains 11 references.) (SM) |
