D. Faculty Scholarly/Creative Activity

1. Academic program-community partnerships

 The SOE is collaborating with FWCS in the Leadership Education for Academic Development (LEAD) Project. The Dean and Associate Dean are actively involved from serving on the Design Team to program development and implementation. FWCS was awarded a five-year $5,000,000 grant to implement the LEAD Project. Through the Wallace-Reader’s Digest grant, the FWCS has established the Learning to Lead Collaborative to recruit, prepare, and support school leaders. The School Administration program at IPFW is developing and creating a new leadership program and curriculum to attract prospective teacher-leaders. It has designed creative courses for LEAD grant candidates in the “Exploratory Leader Academy.” This Academy is designed to allow teachers to “explore” becoming a principal or educational administrator without giving up teaching. The teachers will be selected as “pre- interns” and receive three credits in School Administration. There will be three courses for this cohort group and the project is coordinated by an Assistant Professor from the School Administration program, employed jointly by FWCS and IPFW.  SOE faculty worked as a committee to design and implement the Unit Assessment System (UAS) required by the Indiana Professional Standards Board (IPSB). To facilitate the implementation of the UAS, the Unit Assessment Committee applied for and received a Title II Grant of $122,000 for the 2001-2002 school year. The grant was renewed for $75,440 in the 2002-2003 school year. EACS “partnered” with IPFW to apply for the grant. The money was ultimately to help K-12 students perform better on state mandated tests. To that end, the SOE engaged in a partnership with EACS to help better prepare teachers. The grant paid for an Educational Specialist to teach and organize a new, introductory course, Invitation to Teaching, which would require field experiences in EACS schools and a mentoring relationship of our students with EACS “model teachers.” The grant also allowed the SOE to hire a Data Manager to record the newly gathered UAS data. In addition, the Model Teachers from EACS help the SOE and Arts and Sciences faculty assess the exit portfolios, now required by the UAS as part of performance-based assessment, of the student teachers. As an extension of this partnership relationship, one SOE faculty member, Dr. Glenda Moss, is teaching a Secondary English Methods course on-site at Paul Harding High School. She and her IPFW students have total responsibility for the class on a daily basis. They are working with high school students who failed 9th grade English, and are thus taking an intensive 9th-10th grade English course, so that they will have the possibility of finishing high school “on time.” It is an exciting experiment. We see it as a possible model for other methods courses.  The SOE participated in writing and implementing a $5,000,000 Lilly Community Alliances to Promote Education (CAPE) Grant, which was awarded to Allen County to institute an “Everybody Reads” program. IPFW was the only university associated with the grant. As part of this grant, the SOE offered new graduate course work, “Literacy Framework for Teachers,” which extended Reading Recovery strategies to K-3 teachers. The grant allowed funding of 102 students for six credits in this literacy course each semester of this current academic year. In the fall of 2003 sixty more candidates will be funded for the course. Currently 12 principals are enrolled in coursework, and several faculty members in the SOE have taken the course; others plan to take it in the next academic year. The SOE is currently developing a Certificate 14 Program in Reading and Emergent Literacy to respond to the intense interest of the local school districts in teaching reading.  Dr. Glenda Moss of the SOE, and Kate Freeland, English Department, have been involved in the National Writing Project Workshop for Teaching in an effort to enhance the writing skills of all school-age children. Faculty attended the Workshop and then developed course work for teachers. Two workshops for teachers are currently offered: one workshop is for educators and the other is specifically for “Everybody Reads” (see above) grant recipients. Two writing workshops were offered in the summer of 2002. The course work was developed in conjunction with the National Writing Institute.  Drs. Nancy Grote and Janice Schroeder, Early Childhood, were trained in Reggio Emilia techniques in Reggio Emilia, Italy, in summer of 2001. (Dr. Terri Swim, our new Early Childhood faculty, just recently visited Reggio Emilia, Italy.) They helped FWCS design the newly formed Whitney Young Early Childhood Center, a magnet school, pre-K-2, that uses the Reggio Emilia approach to teach preschool and Kindergarten children. For FWCS, this is the first pre-school and all-day Kindergarten under the auspices of FWCS. A “Pedagogista” has been hired, in addition to a new principal, to help facilitate the new Reggio Emilia approach. These teachers, who formerly taught at a K-2 arts and multicultural magnet in the same building, are all undergoing Reggio training. The SOE’s Early Childhood 2-year program and the newly developed Early Childhood Concentration in the Elementary 4-year program will benefit from having this innovative program available for field placements.  The Project TEAM (Transformative Educational Achievement Model) Grant, through IU-Bloomington, was made available to IPFW in 2002. Fifteen student scholarships (with tuition and book fee reimbursement of $2,000 each) will be awarded to those fitting the criteria. Its purpose is to recruit talented low income and first generation college students into the K-12 teaching profession, as well as students who have lived or worked in culturally diverse communities, who will share the SOE’s mission of service to K-12 students in urban and multicultural schools.  Dr. Jeff Nowak continues to collaborate with the Friends of Metea Organization to involve all E328 students in the preparation of the Metea Park Project. Each fall approximately 450 elementary-age area school children visit Metea Park to participate in a wide variety of environmentally-based science topics and projects.  Students in Dr. Nowak’s E328 class are involved in judging Science Fairs at numerous area schools, as well as preparing Science packets for the Fort Wayne Children’s Zoo, and creating scavenger hunts for school children at the Foellinger-Freimann Botanical Conservatory. 15 2.
