ASSESSMENT PLAN
Students in the Biology education program must complete student teaching.
1999-2000 ASSESSMENT
1998-99 ASSESSMENT
1997-98 ASSESSMENT
All students successfully completed student teaching, and all received teaching contracts.
1996-97 ASSESSMENT
Fewer than 10 students completed student teaching in the Biology endorsement area. While the sample is too small for statistical treatment, anecdotal feedback indicates the students felt well prepared in the subject area during the student teaching experience. The curriculum focuses on a combination of content and process in the discipline. This is consistent with the expectations for entry level teachers in middle school and high school programs.
1995-96 ASSESSMENT
There were too few education students to be statistically meaningful, but those that the Department did have reported being satisfied with their preparation in the subject area.
1994-95 ASSESSMENT
Feedback from the PTE Department on education students reported good preparation in Biology.
1993-94 ASSESSMENT
Several students successfully completed the requirement and met the objectives of this capstone requirement. The exit survey for student teaching will be revised and given again in 1995-96
