Third Draft of Proposed Revision of Association for Middle Level Education/National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education Middle Level Teacher Preparation Standards
The AMLE Professional Preparation Advisory Committee requests commentary and recommendations regarding the third draft of the Association for Middle Level Education/National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education Middle Level Teacher Preparation Standards. The new standards will not go into effect until 2013. These are initial level standards that will be used for review of undergraduate middle level teacher preparation programs and graduate programs that lead to initial certification/licensure. Please note that the content of these standards cannot duplicate NCATE Unit Standards that apply to all teacher preparation programs (e.g., diversity or technology). The purpose of this posting is to request feedback for the AMLE Professional Preparation Advisory Committee so that the standards can be further refined. Please send questions, comments and recommendations to Ken McEwin, AMLE Program Review Coordinator at mcewinck@appstate.edu. This review period ends June 1, 2012.
