Abstract:
This article describes a partnership between teacher education candidates in a small, rural, private university and students in a large, public, urban junior/ senior high school. This partnership utilized technology and used a Literature as a Bridge (LAAB) program to foster discussions designed to be vehicles of learning for all participants. The objectives of this program were to 1) have urban youth see higher education as an option for their future by giving them experience with college students, college expectations, and a college campus, 2) increase cultural competence by providing opportunities for teacher candidates to work with culturally and ethnically diverse students with experiences different from their own, and 3) allow literature to be a vehicle to bridge diverse groups. The dynamic relationship between teacher candidate and high school students set the stage for transformational learning for both the teacher candidates and the junior/senior high school students.

Abstract:
Recent government reviews of higher education in Australia have highlighted the need for comprehensive reform across the tertiary education and training sector. Teacher education has traditionally been offered in isolation from schools. Innovative partnerships between universities, schools, employing bodies, and other educational institutions are now encouraged. This study evaluates the impact and effectiveness of one university-school partnership between an Australian university and a large secondary college in Canberra, Australia. The partnership, titled the Down South initiative, embeds secondary teacher education within a College learning environment to bring together academics, secondary college students and teachers, and pre-service teachers for learning and research. The paper provides evidence of the effectiveness of the partnership in strengthening pre-service teachers’ professional identity, knowledge and practice and by contributing to mutually reciprocal outcomes for all.

Abstract:
Partnerships between colleges and universities and K-12 school districts attempt to improve access to higher education by tailoring college outreach and teacher professional development programs to local needs as well as aligning high school curricula with higher education admissions criteria. In this article, we conduct a quasi-experimental evaluation of partnerships between universities and school districts in California. Our fixed-effects models indicate that comprehensive K-16 partnerships substantially increase student graduation and nonselective university enrollment rates in participating school districts, but that these effects take time. We argue that local partnerships are an effective, but resource- and time-intensive, K-16 school reform strategy.

Abstract:
<p>The Philippine government is currently investing on education reform through the Enhanced<br />Basic Education Program or the K-12 Curriculum. The recent basic education program does<br />not only call for academic excellence but also on higher teacher qualification. The purpose of<br />this study is to determine whether or not teacher licensure matters in the implementation of<br />the basic education reform in the Philippine Education system. Qualitative in orientation, this<br />study utilized Phenomenology as its research design to capture the lebenswelt of college<br />teachers who are distraught by the implementation of the new K-12 curriculum. Data were<br />gathered through interviews and the analysis of data was empirically observed using the<br />following steps: transcribing, coding, theming, verifying, and analyzing. The analysis of data<br />in this phenomenological inquiry yielded three essential themes based on the respondents’<br />major statements pertaining to eligibility that makes the college teacher qualified to teach in<br />the Senior High School of the new K-12 program, namely: full eligibility, provisionary<br />eligibility, and temporary eligibility. The college teachers in this study accept and favor the<br />Department of Education’s teaching licensure requirement. They believe that passing the<br />Licensure Examination for Teachers (LET) is an important requirement before entering the<br />classroom. The shared experiences of the participants of the study serve as a primordial<br />source to raise awareness about the value and importance of teacher licensure to meet the<br />high quality standards set by the profession and the hiring standard recognized by the<br />government and public schools as an assurance of competence and quality.</p>

Abstract:
The aim of pre-school education – taking into account child’s innate powers, his/her individual experiences, referring to the regularities of development to help a child to develop the fundamentals of independence, healthy lifestyle, positive communication with adults and children, creativity, knowledge about the environment and the country, knowing how to learn. The purpose of pre-primary education – to help a child prepare to successfully learn according to the curriculum of primary education. Both pre-school and pre-school teacher's goal – to help the family to educate pre-school and pre-school age child. In Lithuania pre-school and pre-primary education teachers are trained both at universities and at colleges. In the society it is often discussed whether for a teacher who works with pre-schoolers – little citizens of the country – it is enough to have higher non-university (college) education of higher university education is obligatory. In the present essay the concepts of pre-school and pre-primary education have been used because a teacher having obtained the qualification of a pre-school educator still has no possibility to work with pre-primary age children until he/she obtains these complementary competences. Analysis of scientific literature and documents allowed making the conclusions about the particularity of children of pre-school and pre-primary age, the importance of the role of pre-school and pre-primary education teachers in developing children’s personalities, the differences of these teachers’ training at universities and colleges and teachers university educational necessity. Key words: university education, non-university (education of college) education, pre-school and pre-primary education, teacher training.

Abstract:
Participation in advanced academic programs such as Advanced Placement (AP) and International Baccalaureate (IB) has been associated with higher student achievement and college readiness. In addition, AP and IB are widely recommended and implemented as services for gifted and talented students. Students who participate in these programs tend to be more successful in college admissions, scholarships, college grade point averages, and college completion rates. Black and Hispanic students do not generally participate in AP and IB programs at the same rate as same-school White students, leaving White students to benefit disproportionately in the transition from high school to college. This study analyzed ethnicity gaps in AP and IB programs longitudinally from 2001 to 2011 in 117 suburban high schools. Results indicated that AP/IB participation increased for all students over time ( d = 0.74). There were ethnicity gaps in 2001 and again in 2011 between Black and Hispanic student AP/IB participation and White student AP/IB participation, and the gaps neither increased nor decreased substantially over time. This study also examined school factors associated with AP/IB ethnicity gaps and found that overall schoolwide college readiness and the proportion of minority faculty at each school were moderately associated with changes in the magnitude of the gaps. Teacher experience and changing student demographics in schools showed little to no association with changes in the magnitude of the ethnicity gaps.

Abstract:
This historical case study of Bank Street College of Education examines the organizational arrangement of an independent professional school as an alternative to standard college/university-based schools of education. Bank Street College of Education claims to be a school with a clear, purposeful mission that is organized in a free-standing arrangement. This study tests the efficacy of that claim by looking at five criteria for schools of education: clear mission, strong leadership, consonant external relations, mission-supported research, and strong structure; over five periods of time.;Using Burton Clark's (1971) theory of organizational saga and Grant and Riesman's (1978) notion that an organization uses its distinctiveness to generate necessary resources, Bank Street College was examined to see if and how it has maintained a distinctive mission.;It was discovered that Bank Street has a strong, operable institutional saga supported by the charismatic leadership of the founding leader, Lucy Sprague Mitchell. It was also found that environmental congruence has strengthened the philosophical mission of the College, but has diffused the operationality of the mission. Although Bank Street offers an interesting alternative to standard college/university-based schools of education, its dependence on external funding makes its mission vulnerable to dilution.;Further research is needed to investigate the environmental vulnerability of mission-specific organizations.

Abstract:
For a variety of reasons, college students with disabilities encounter stressors beyond those of students who do not have disabilities. One of the more salient examples is that students with disabilities are required to disclose that they have a disability and to communicate with faculty and staff in order to receive academic accommodations, as afforded to them under sub-part E of Section 504 of the Education and Rehabilitation Act of 1974. Therefore, postsecondary institutions are required to make appropriate accommodations available to students with disabilities, but they are not required to proactively seek them out. The purpose of this study was to learn about the needs that students with physical disabilities have concerning their successful transition into professional careers. This was accomplished by analyzing how five current senior students with disabilities reflected on their experiences, particularly in terms of using work preparation programs and/or accommodations necessary for them to participate in employment recruitment activities provided by the university’s career services office. The intent of those services was to transition disabled students from the university environment into the workforce. The findings showed that the students perceived they did not receive a lot of information regarding the services available, and they also expressed that the university should have done more in transitioning them into their professional life. The basic premise is that higher education professionals, key support staff, and administrators who provide work preparation programs, career, transition and accommodation services to disabled students are in a position to help remove informational barriers, facilitate the use of services and accommodations, and to actively encourage students with disabilities to enter the workforce upon graduation. The results of this study may inspire university personnel to find creative ways to get students involved and motivated to seek services available to them, to be best self-advocates to students needing their services, and to understand the transition challenges that exist between academic life and entry into the workforce. By being more aware and sensitive about the needs of students with disabilities, the professionals who work with them might be better positioned to help them experience a successful and more supported transition into a competitive employment and independent life after college.

Abstract:
Ill-discipline behaviour has become a canker that threatens the moral fibre of institutions. The purpose of this study was to explore how discipline measures and practices were viewed by teacher trainees and college managers alike. Furthermore, to determine what comprehensive counselling approaches were in place to manage ill-discipline behaviour acts in colleges of education in Ghana. A qualitative discourse analysis study design was employed in the study. In all, 25 participants were purposively selected from five colleges of education for the study using a semi-structured interview guide. Data collected was transcribed, coded, categorized and qualitatively analysed under themes that emerged from the analysis using the thematic approach. The study revealed that several illdiscipline behaviour acts exist in colleges of education, with perversion being the most prevailing ill-discipline behaviour act. The study also revealed that tertiarization of colleges is the major cause of ill-discipline behaviour among students in the colleges of education and poor academic performance being the major negative effect of ill-discipline behaviour in the colleges of education. The study recommended that the college council and management should put adequate measures in place to strengthen Guidance and Counselling units in the colleges of education. The study also recommended that college counsellors should be equipped to use appropriate counselling approaches and techniques to counsel students to desist from indulging in ill-discipline behaviour acts.

Full text
Abstract:
At least three different kinds of interventions are suggested in discussions of schools and high-risk children: preventing school failure, preventing school dropouts, and finding and reinstating students who have already dropped out. The first set is touched on in the effective schools literature, assuming that improving the quality of education will result in higher achievement for all children. Thus, the interventions are primarily aimed at school reform and organization. The second set is described in the dropout prevention literature, with much more attention to individual needs and support services, along with alternative school structures. Because official dropout statistics are generally calculated only for high schools, most of the interventions are directed toward older students, although there is increasing recognition of the need for early intervention. Reinstating students in school is approached largely through employment and “recovery” programs for young people over the age of 18. Because this book is focused on 10- to 17-yearolds, the third set of interventions relating to job placement and programs for older youth will not be included. That subject has been thoroughly addressed by the Grant Foundation Commission on Work, Family, and Citizenship and other sources. The public has been deluged with studies focusing on the crisis in American education. The rationale for intensified concern is that unless the quality of education is improved we as a nation will not be able to compete with foreign countries (the Japanese educational system is most often cited as a model). One source reported that more than 275 education task forces had been organized in the mid- 1980s and “reform literature [has become] a cottage industry among scholars.” States enacted more than 700 pieces of legislation between 1983 and 1985, mostly stressing a return to basics. Most recommendations directed toward raising quality call for higher standards for graduation from high school, higher college admission standards, teacher competency tests, and changes in teacher certification requirements.

Abstract:
Videoconferencing is one form of distance learning that can enhance teacher education programs by linking students in higher education with Pre-K–12 schools. As part of a Preparing Tomorrow’s Teachers to use Technology grant (PT3), a teacher education program utilized distance learning to link college classes with an urban school. Mediated observations of specific literacy practices were integrated into a traditional introductory literacy course. Preservice teachers observed urban teachers teaching literacy. Immediately following these observations, the preservice teachers were granted the opportunity to reflect on the lesson by conversing with the teachers via distance learning. Initial findings suggest students acquired positive attitudes toward teaching in urban classrooms and preferred this virtual field experience to a traditional in-school placement.

Abstract:
This chapter examines John Henry Comstock's experience as a sailor and a scholar. Living as he did among sailors, it was natural that he should turn to sailing as the most available means of earning money. His first experience was on a small lumber vessel plying between Oswego, New York and Kingston, Canada. At the end of the first season of sailing, Henry had twenty dollars in his pocket after he had bought his clothing for the coming year, and with this surplus he started home. When he started school, the devoted teacher Miss Eleanor Dickinson encouraged Henry to take up algebra. It was the first time in his life that even a thought of higher education had dawned on his mind. A new world then opened to the boy, and Miss Dickinson taught him his algebra after school hours. To her influence Henry always attributed his ambition for an education; he had become thoroughly imbued with the desire for a college education and gave his whole thought and energy to his work in school. The chapter then details Henry's terms at Mexico Academy and Falley Seminary. In the fall of 1869, he entered Cornell University.

Abstract:
Dr. Lilia Abron is an engineer, an entrepreneur, mother, and activist who works twelve-hour days. She is another true Renaissance woman. Lilia was born at home in Memphis, Tennessee, on March 8, 1945. She was small, premature, and almost did not survive were it not for her aunt, who rushed her to the hospital in a cab because ambulances were not available to black people at the time. She was the second of four daughters of Ernest Buford Abron and Bernice Wise Abron, who were both educators. Both of her parents had attended LeMyone College. Her father entered college and played football. Because of an injury he was ineligible to serve in the military in World War II. He then worked as a Pullman porter, because his father had been a Pullman porter. After the war, when the trains were not as popular, he became a teacher in the Memphis public schools. Lilia’s mother and father were very active during the civil rights era. Lilia’s mother was from Arkansas; and she typed the briefs for Wiley Branton, defense attorney for the Little Rock Nine, the group that integrated Central High School in Little Rock, Arkansas. Because Lilia’s parents were active in Memphis society, Lilia was involved in programs that included the Girl Scouts and the church. She went to public school in Memphis, Tennessee. In 1957, the Soviet Union launched Sputnik, which led the United States to improve math and science education. The school system tracked each student’s education, even in the segregated schools. Therefore, Lilia was placed in the math and science track. This meant she participated in a science fair, which was held at Lemoyne College. In addition, she had to prepare other science projects. Her segregated schools were well equipped for science teaching. In addition to well-stocked labs, the Memphis high school that she attended offered higher-level mathematics, including algebra and introduction to calculus. She graduated from high school in Memphis and decided to go to college with the intention of studying medicine, which was the one of the few occupations available to black people at the time.

Abstract:
As K12 computer science education is expanding nationwide, school districts are challenged to find qualified computer science teachers. It will take many years for schools of education to produce a sufficient number of certified computer science teachers to meet the demand. In the interim courses like Exploring Computer Science (ECS) can fill the gap. ECS is designed to provide a robust introduction to computer science and the accompanying professional development is structured such that a college level understanding of computer science is not required. This brief summarizes research with 20,000 Chicago Public Schools high school students and their teachers to test the claim that the ECS professional development can provide an adequate preparation for teaching ECS. The results provide strong evidence that full completion of the ECS professional development program by teachers from any discipline leads to much higher student outcomes, independent of whether a teacher is certified in computer science.
