"Arkansas' Voice on the Internet" Previous Features / Investigations A special report by Mary Hargrove and Susan Roth Arkansas Democrat-Gazette Writers
The search for answers When Georgia began checking criminal backgrounds on some of its 85,000 teachers in 1993, its Professional Practices Commission found 267 cases of alleged teacher misconduct. Three years later, the commission was investigating 616 complaints. "With a code of ethics in place and the fingerprint law, the reporting of teacher misconduct has taken off," said James J. Carter, the commission's executive director. "We are so inundated with the increasing cases that we haven't been able to develop an annual statistical report," Carter said. "We have a nine-month backlog before we get to some cases." The Arkansas Legislature is expected to tackle the teacher background check issue for the second time in its next session. Opposition to extensive changes could be fierce, particularly from the Arkansas Education Association, the state's largest teacher union. State Rep. Marian Owens-Ingram, D-Warren, pushed Act 1310 through to passage during the 1995 session. That law refined the process for revoking a teacher's license and established requirements for the state's first teacher criminal background check.

http://www.stillman.edu/stillman/teacheredprog/teachedprogram.html
The Teacher Education Education Program is comprised of a set of prescribed field experiences, entry and retention requirements, courses, and regulations designed to prepare students for state certification and successful careers as teachers. The program includes preparation for students who wish to be elementary teachers as well as those who desire to teach a student area at the secondary level. The program maintains the Teacher Education Center, a resource laboratory for students majoring in a teacher education area. Stillman College complies with requirements and rules issued by the Alabama State Department of Education for teacher certification. Published admission and curriculum requirements will be notified when necessary to reflect changes in state requirements. Retention in Teacher Education Once Admitted to Teacher Education, students are required to meet program stipulations. Failure to maintain a minimum of 2.5 grade point average, on a 4.0 scale overall, in Professional Studies education courses and in the teaching field(s) places the student on probation and jeopardizes continuance in the Teacher Education Program. No grade lower that a "C" in any EDU, EED, or SED-prefix course is permitted; in case of a lower grade, the course must be repeated. Any student who, in the opinion of the Screening and Admissions Committee is judged to have developed undesirable characteristics, academic programs or is deemed unsuitable for the professional may, after appropriate review, be dropped from the program.

April 15, 2004 PERRYVILLE, AR - Ashley Jones, ExplorNet's Computer Engineering (CE) Instructor for Perryville High School in Arkansas, has good news to share: her class is going extremely well, and her students are thriving! Ashley Jones with her Computer Engineering students in Perryville, AR. Jones contacted ExplorNet earlier in the school year to share some key highlights of the impact her CE class is having on students. She tells us she had one student who "hated school and wanted to quit" before attending her CE class. His mom began to see changes the program made in his attitude and thanked Jones for making such a difference in her child's life. "She said in his other classes he felt like he was an outcast because he wasn't as smart as the other kids," Jones remembers. "He felt like the teachers and students were making fun of him. But she said he didn't feel that way in my class. He felt just as smart as everyone else. All the other teachers here talk about what a behavior problem he can be, but this kid is the perfect student for me. He is sweet and smart and will do anything I ask him to. I know this class is the reason for it and I feel so honored that I have been able to have such an impact on this student's life through it." Jones had another student who began his own side business. He has built computers for people within the community, as well as for his church. He is planning to take the national A+ certification exam.

    NCLB: Teacher Quality Promising Practices NGA summary of promising state practices regarding No Child Left Behind's highly-qualified teacher provisions and links to more information. By the end of the 2005-06 school year, states must ensure that all teachers of core academic subjects are "highly qualified." In addition, starting in fall 2002, new teachers of core academic subjects in high-poverty schools must meet the definition of "highly qualified." Highly qualified teachers:
    • are fully credentialed (via traditional or alternative certification); can demonstrate competency; and possess a bachelor's degree.
    States have developed policies and programs to address the barriers that have traditionally stood in the way of having a highly qualified teacher in every classroom. These initiatives include recruiting new teachers, ensuring teacher quality, promoting teacher retention, and collecting data about gaps in teacher quality. Recruit new teachers
    The California School Paraprofessional Teacher Training Program recruits paraprofessionals from the community and provides $3,000 for each participant to receive certification training. Seventy-five percent of the participants must work in high-poverty schools. By reducing unnecessary barriers into the teaching profession, including the creation of career ladders that enable paraprofessionals to become certified classroom teachers, states can maximize the number of new, highly-qualified teachers and meet the goal of having a highly-qualified teacher in every classroom.

This is due in no small part to the certification regulations which went into effect on September 2, 1993 as well as the changes recently adopted by the Regents that go into effect in September 2004. This Bulletin describes those regulations which are currently in place. The purpose of this Information Bulletin is to summarize the information most commonly sought by members and local leaders. Please bear in mind that this Information Bulletin is for INFORMATION ONLY , and is not to be considered as an official interpretation of the rules and regulations of the Commissioner. Official answers on the interpretation of certification regulations and certification status can only be obtained from the Office of Teaching of the State Education Department (see sidebar for contact information). HIGHLIGHTS
    • Certification may be achieved in six ways: through the completion of an approved program; through individual assessment of a candidate's educational background; through Interstate Agreements, including the Northeast Regional Credential; through completion of a new alternative certification program, and new regulations for out-of-state teachers.

One of the major issues addressed by the legislation is the quality of teachers for children with special needs. IDEA ’97 requires students receiving special education services to be educated with their non-disabled peers to the “maximum extent practicable.” As a result, according to a 2001 report from the Study of Personnel Needs in Special Education, 75% of students receiving special education services spend 40% or more of their day in general education classrooms. Consequently, 96% of general education teachers currently teach, or have in the past taught, children with special needs.
    Teacher Preparation and Certification
    Special Education Training for General Education Teachers
    How have states responded to the challenge to prepare general education teachers to meet the needs of students with special needs? According to ECS’ Teacher Preparation Policy Database (http://www.tqsource.org/prep/policy/), 46 states and the District of Columbia currently have statutes or regulations requiring teacher education programs to provide some instruction on teaching children with special needs to individuals seeking initial training in elementary or secondary education. The amount and content of this instruction, however, varies dramatically.
