A r c h i v e d I n f o r m a t i o n Improving America's Schools: Newsletter on Issues in School Reform - May 1996 Reforms in Preservice Preparation Programs and Teacher Certification Standards Just as states, districts, and educational associations are beginning to rethink professional development strategies to support school improvement, they are also trying to reform preservice preparation programs and teacher certification standards. They have been exploring better ways to prepare new teachers, certify experienced teachers, and provide ongoing professional development to practicing educators. Many organizations-including schools, universities, and national educator groups-have created professional development schools that fit the continuing needs of teachers, from their preservice period to after many years of practice. In addition, educators, professional organizations, private foundations, and others have established a National Board for Professional Teaching Standards that can certify and recognize exceptional, experienced teachers. Professional Development Schools The professional development school framework encourages simultaneous restructuring of K-12 schools and colleges of education. Professional development schools provide clinical settings that prepare novice teachers to succeed in real schools and communities. Like medical students who serve an internship in hospitals, novice teachers learn to apply their coursework to the everyday challenges of actual teaching. The schools also provide ongoing professional development for experienced teachers and university faculty.

How does "off the mat" yoga help with a busy family schedule and traveling? What books are you reading? What pose would you pick to do at a party? When I am traveling people often ask me What is Yoga? If the time is right, I just suggest they raise their arms overhead and stretch, and I do it too. Everyone is willing it seems. Then I might say something about reach through the fingertips and press the heels into the floor. They get it right away, and often say "That feels so good." vrksasana . It is such a fun pose, and can create a lot of good feeling and laughter about falling over, and being a little off-balance, which we all are anyway, being human. What or who has been an inspiration for my teaching? Washington Post because it introduces poetry into my life every Sunday. I am inspired by my fellow teachers, their quality of awakeness in every class, my friends, my wonderful family, my students, being on Edisto Beach and watching the dolphins play.
