AAU Teacher Education Forum

美国大学协会（AAU）正在建立一个由美国大学协会各机构组成的机构间网络，以维持目前在教师的数学、科学和技术准备方面的示范做法，并促进在教师准备方面的这种做法的分享。AAU正在召集一个由学院和大学管理人员组成的垂直团队论坛，包括理学院院长和教育学院院长，以及科学、数学、工程和教育教师。本次邀请论坛的主题是“教师准备中的示范实践和挑战”，主要介绍数学、科学和技术领域的教师准备模式，讨论实施策略，并对会议进行网络直播。论坛的成果包括会议论文集的出版，最佳实践的确定，以及校园行动计划的制定，以指导校园制定各自的实施计划，使科学、数学和工程学院参与教师教育。该论坛反映了1999年AAU校长和校长通过的关于教师教育的决议的目标，该决议呼吁加大对学科专业教学的认证力度，持续致力于将大学的研究活动与职前和继续教师教育相结合，并重新强调大学教师更充分地参与其角色的重要性，以培养未来的教师，有经验的教师，以及未来的老师。AAU寻求在研究型大学中建立一个教师和领导者的网络，他们分享、发展和采用教师教育的典范实践。

The Association of American Universities (AAU) is developing an inter-institutional network of AAU institutions to sustain current exemplary practices in the mathematics, science and technology preparation of teachers and to promote the sharing of such practices in teacher preparation. AAU is convening a forum for vertical teams from AAU universities consisting of college and university administrators, including Deans of Science and Deans of Education, and science, mathematics, engineering, and education faculty. This invitational forum on Exemplary Practices and Challenges in Teacher Preparation, features presentations of models of teacher preparation in mathematics, science, and technology, discussions of implementation strategies, and a webcast of the conference. Outcomes of the forum include publication of the conference proceedings, identification of best practices, and the development of a Campus Action Plan to guide campuses in developing their individual implementation plans for engaging science, mathematics, and engineering faculty in teacher education. The forum reflects the goals of a 1999 Resolution on Teacher Education adopted by the presidents and chancellors of AAU calling for an increased effort to certify disciplinary majors to teach, an ongoing commitment to integrate the research activities of universities with preservice and continuing teacher education, and a renewed emphasis on the importance of engaging the university faculty more fully in their roles of preparing future teachers, experienced teachers, and future teachers of teachers. AAU seeks to create a network of faculty and leaders in research universities who share, develop, and adopt exemplary practices in teacher education.
