Preparing for CAEP Accreditation: Standard 2 Field Supervisors Meeting November 21, 2017
Agenda Overview of CAEP Standards for Initial Level In-Depth Look at Standard 2 – Small Group Partnerships for Clinical Preparation Clinical Educators Clinical Experiences Technology and Diversity Themes Concerns/Areas for Improvement Associated with Standard 2
Review of Standard 2 Components How are we meeting this component of the standard? What evidence would indicate we are meeting this component of the standard? What areas of this component could be problematic for us? What suggestions do you have for addressing these areas of concern?
Technology and Diversity Theme How can we document candidate use of technology throughout their programs, including clinical experiences? How can we document student teachers require P-12 student use of technology? How can we document diversity in clinical experiences? Diverse placements? Diverse clinical educators?
Problematic Components for EPPs Undergoing CAEP Visits Advisory committee is university-driven with no collaborative efforts from P-12 partners. No formal agreements with P-12 partners were presented. No evidence was presented that university and P-12 partners establish mutual expectations for candidate entry, preparation, and exit from clinical experiences. Data were not reported for purposes of modifying/improving clinical experiences.
Problematic Components for EPPs Undergoing CAEP Visits No evidence was presented to document the depth, breadth, and diversity of clinical experiences. No evidence was presented to document clinical experiences are deliberate, purposeful, sequential, and assessed using performance-based measures across programs. No evidence was presented to document performance evaluations of university supervisors, P-12 supervisors, and candidates.
Problematic Components for EPPs Undergoing CAEP Visits The EPP does not provide evidence of processes, procedures, and systems needed to reliably capture data that measures the depth, breadth, diversity, coherence, and duration of clinical experiences. No evidence was presented to document clinical supervisor training. Limited evidence of a shared partnership model was presented.
Problematic Components for EPPs Undergoing CAEP Visits Limited data were presented to indicate how candidates’ minimum of one diverse field placement adequately integrates affirming pedagogies.
