Connecting Teacher Education and Pupil Learning: Evidence Emerging from the Teachers for a New Era Initiative: CSU NORTHRIDGE Dr. Beverly Cabello Assessment Co-leader

Research Questions Original Pilot Study Questions ●Are there significantly different pupil achievement patterns by pathway? ●Is there a relationship between teacher preparation factors and pupil performance? ●Which set of variables have a greater impact on pupil test scores, those relating to teacher preparation programs, those relating to teacher in-service experience, or those relating to school characteristics? Added or transformed by CRESST - KCHOI ● Do teacher effect estimates change over time? ● What do teacher effect profile trajectories look like? ● To what extent do teachers’ background characteristics relate to teacher effect profile trajectories ● To what extent are estimates of change in teacher effects influenced by school characteristics?

Opportunities & Challenges Data Warehouse CSU/LAUSD Partners Arts & Sciences CRESST Multiple studies Data Warehouse Cultural divides Need more, better data therefore: State policy changes $$$
4
Electronic Data Available Before & After TNE BEFORE ● Course Grades ● Cumulative GPA ● Some state test scores AFTER GPA x professional courses & at transition points Field-work evaluations Portfolio Evaluations Disposition Evaluations In near future – PACT Pathway identification

Findings & Issues Pilot Findings 1. Significant Mean differences between pathways on reading & writing NRT’s 2. Increases in reading & writing with dip in ’03 3. Some significant differences between CSUN & Non CSUN CRESST/CHOI No difference between CSUN & Non-CSUN teachers on pupil gain scores controlling for school risk factors. See Kilchan Choi (2007) Teacher Effect Change Model: Latent Variable Regression in 5-Level Hierarchical Models (AERA 2007)

Use of Findings Multiple data sources ● CSU Chancellor’s teacher exit survey & Systemwide Evaluation of Teacher Preparation Data from our warehouse Pupil learning studies Multiple discussions & use of data at different levels
