The Professional Education Unit (PEU) is committed to providing education programs at the undergraduate, graduate, and advanced graduate levels that prepare school professionals who are highly qualified to teach, counsel, lead, and administer. read more...
The Professional Education Unit at The College of Brockport is nationally accredited by the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE). The Unit is governed by the Professional Education Council (PEC) and linked to the professional community through the Unit Advisory Board. The Unit Teacher Effectiveness and Assessment committees are the two standing committees of the PEC.
Student teaching assessment is done in each of the two required student teaching placements. At the mid-point of each placement, the Teacher Candidate (TC) self-assesses and the School-Based Teacher (SBTE) provides a formative assessment of candidate performance. At the end of each placement, the SBTE and the College Supervisor (CS) provides a summative assessment of candidate performance.
The mid-assessment is comprised of items based upon Danielson's four domains: I. Planning and Preparation, II. Classroom Environment, III. Instruction, and IV. Professional Responsibilities and in some cases, Discipline-Specific items that align with a particular Specialized Professional Association (SPA).
The end assessment is comprised of the items from the mid-assessment plus the Global Assessment of Candidate Performance (GACP), the PEU wide assessment aligned to the Professional Education Unit-Conceptual Framework (PEU-CF).
Each item on the mid and end assessment instruments is rated using a four-category performance scale: Unacceptable, Developing, Proficient, and Exemplary. The criteria for each rating is given in the instrument.
The aggregate candidate performance expectation for programs and the PEU are: 90-100% of the candidates are Developing or Better thus providing evidence of demonstrating the knowledge or skill, 80% or better are Proficient or better, 5-10% are Exemplary, and less than 5% are Unacceptable/Not Applicable/Missing.
