Cal Poly Pomona Noyce Master Teacher Fellows Program (CPP MTFs)

Cal Poly Pomona与波莫纳联合学区和安大略省蒙特克莱尔学区合作，正在培训20名中学硕士教师，使用一个为期五年的基于视频的实践分析专业发展计划，重点是提高硕士教师的科学和数学内容知识、教学内容知识和领导技能。视频和计算机技术为创建以实践为基础的课程提供了机会，其中包括与实习教师一起录制的课程和辅导课程，以及支持重要大师教师学习的附带教案、学生作业、学生评估和课程材料。该项目正着眼于该项目对实习教师学习和实地留存的影响方面的有效性。准实验两组设计允许在合作教师经历CPP MTF计划的学生教师和接受不在该计划中的合作教师支持的学生教师之间进行比较。教师培训教师的教学知识、教学知识(PCK)、沟通和促进技能、教师培训教师课堂实践的培训前视频、培训前的教师教学知识和教师培训知识以及纵向数据库提供了必要的数据，以分析预测实习教师学习和他们在教师职业中的寿命的因素。该项目使用一个纵向数据库跟踪两组实习教师的流失率，以确定他们的硕士教师参加CPP MTF计划为实习教师增加的价值。MTF获得必要的知识和技能，成为加州保利波莫纳大学教育与综合研究学院的兼职教员，并获得国家教师绩效评估计分员的认证。MTF可以选择成为国家委员会认证、在其所在学区内的初级教师支持和评估(BTSA)计划中的潜在导师或在其他内容领域完成认证要求。位于帕萨迪纳的亨廷顿图书馆提供了对植物学内容至关重要的专业知识和资源。

Cal Poly Pomona, in partnership with Pomona Unified School District and Ontario Montclair School District, is preparing 20 middle school Master teachers using a five-year video-based analysis-of-practice professional development program focused on improving Master teacher science and mathematics content knowledge, pedagogical content knowledge and leadership skills. Video and computer technologies provide an opportunity for creating a practice-based program which includes videotaped lessons and coaching sessions with student teachers along with accompanying lesson plans, student work, student assessments and curriculum materials that support important Master teacher learning. The project is looking at program effectiveness in terms of its impact on student teacher learning and retention in the field. A quasi-experimental two-group design allows for comparisons between student teachers whose Cooperating Teacher experienced the CPP MTF program and student teachers who received support from Cooperating Teachers who were not in the program. Pre-post assessments of MTFs' content knowledge, pedagogical content knowledge (PCK), communication and facilitation skills, pre-post videos of MTFs' classroom practice, and pre-post student teacher content knowledge and PCK as well as a longitudinal data base provide the necessary data to analyze factors that predict student teacher learning and their longevity in the teaching profession. The project is using a longitudinal database to track attrition rates of student teachers from both groups to determine the value added to student teachers as a result of their Master teacher's participation in the CPP MTF program. MTFs gain the knowledge and skills necessary to become adjunct faculty in the College of Education and Integrative Studies at Cal Poly Pomona as well as receive state certification as a Teacher Performance Assessment Scorer. Options to become National Board Certified, potential mentors in the Beginning Teacher Support and Assessment (BTSA) Program within their school district or complete the requirements for certification in an additional content field are available to the MTFs. The Huntington Library, located in Pasadena, provides expertise and resources critical to botany content.
