- Summary:
-
This paper discusses issues regarding the continuum of teacher preparation, particularly related to the alignment between degree programs in institutions of higher education and the professional growth of teachers. Guided by interviews with faculty at institutions that are aligning their master's degrees with National Board for Professional Teaching Standards (NBPTS) standards, the paper presents an overview of the range of approaches taken, issues in higher education that facilitate or impede the process, and the role and impact of state policies. The paper argues for using benchmarking strategies rather than template approaches in redesigning master's programs for accomplished teachers. One underlying theme is whether or not master's degree programs that are being developed to respond to the system of national certification incorporate knowledge of practice in which practitioners believe. The paper examines a small number of programs, addressing the process and specific elements of their design, issues of faculty development and implementation, and evaluation of the programs and process. Finally, the paper poses questions and issues that faculties of education engaged in this process should consider. (Contains 22 references.) (SM)
