Continuous Improvement in Educator Preparation (CIEP) Program Report Submission Form Class A Sport Management

Institution Name: Date Submitted: Program Report Status: Choose one of the options below.  Initial Review  Continuing Review

Essential Purpose for Each Section: I. Background Information: Provide background knowledge of the structure of the program (checklist; transition points; delivery methods; numbers of admissions, completers, and recommendations for certification).

II. Key Assessments: Provide an overview of the assessment plan for the program in the chart. Key assessments are typically summative assessments of candidates’ proficiencies. Evaluation of key assessments is based on key assessment instruments and data, not the chart.

III. Alignment of Standards to Curriculum and Key Assessments: Provide an overview of how the program ensures each indicator is adequately addressed in curriculum and key assessment(s) so reviewers know where to look to determine if the evidence sufficiently demonstrates each indicator is met and whether the broader standard is met.

IV. Summary of Field Experiences: Provide an overview of how the program requires candidates to demonstrate developing proficiencies in field experiences. Evaluation of these experiences is based on the chart and assessment instruments. Assessments for field experiences are typically formative assessments. The evidence should demonstrate field experiences are well-planned, sequential, and meaningful.

V. Presentation of Data and Analysis: For each key assessment, provide a summary of what the data reveal about the program and/or the data.

VI. Discussion of How Data Analysis Informs Continuous Improvement: Provide an overview of what the program has learned from analyzing all of the data in Section V and provide evidence of program changes that have been made as a result.

Area of Instructional Support: Sport Management 11

For each standard on the chart below, identify the curriculum components and Key Assessments listed in Section II that address the standard and indicators. Each standard must be supported by at least one Key Assessment that provides solid and direct evidence of candidate mastery of the standard. In most cases, a standard will be addressed by more than one Key Assessment. Cross-references to the standards and indicators may be inserted into the assessments.

Standard 1 Knowledge of: Curriculum Components— Key Indicators Courses or Other Assessment(s) Requirements12 (Identify by key (Include course prefix, number, assessment and name.) number[s] in Section II.) 1.1 The interrelationships among sports, culture, and society, including: 1.1.1 The historical relationship between sports and education. 1.1.2 The role and function of sports in contemporary society. 1.1.3 The socio-cultural factors that influence participation in sports. 1.1.4 Local, state, and national professional and regulatory organizations. 1.2 Organization and administration of sports programs, including: 1.2.1 Program development, operation, and assessment. 1.2.2 Leadership styles and their impact on the management process.

Complete the chart below to provide summary information about the program’s required field experiences prior to internship. Two or more levels are required, based on transition points. IHEs should use their own terms for levels. Identify required courses or other required curriculum components with field experiences at each level. Information in the chart and assessments should provide evidence the program ensures candidates develop and demonstrate essential knowledge, skills, and dispositions.

Are field experiences always completed in the order noted above? If no, provide additional information about other possible sequences of required field experiences.

14 Placement requirements responses might include rural, urban, or suburban; Title I; grade 4-6; regional School for the Deaf and Blind; magnet school, or general education classroom.

15 Assessment instruments which are Key Assessments will be reported elsewhere in this report. It is not necessary to provide data tables, an analysis of data, or discussion of the use of data in continuous improvement for all assessments of field experiences.

Last revised: 12-29-2015 Page 9 SECTION V Presentation of Data and Analysis

Use the ALSDE coversheet with each key assessment.

Include one document, no more than four pages in length, for each Key Assessment (including Praxis II assessments) that addresses: 1. Presentation of Data  Data must be presented in chart format and include: o A brief description of the assessment and its use in the program (one sentence may be sufficient) o Data for at least three years o “N”s o No identifying information (names, IDs, SSNs) o Clear alignment to standards and indicators  Data tables should be clearly aligned with the chart for Alignment of Standards to Curriculum and Assessments.  Concepts in the standards should be apparent in the assessments and in the scoring criteria to the same depth, breadth, and specificity as in the standards in the Alignment of Standards to Curriculum and Assessment.  The data should be presented, in general, at the same level it is collected. For example, if a rubric collects data on 10 elements, then the data chart should report the data on each of the elements rather than reporting a cumulative score.

2. Analysis of Data Discuss how data provides evidence candidates meet (or do not meet) standards and indicators.

SECTION VI Discussion of How Data Analysis Informs Continuous Improvement

Include a document, no more than four pages in length, presenting evidence that assessment results have been analyzed and have been or will be used to improve candidate performance and strengthen the program. This description should summarize principal findings from the evidence, the faculty’s interpretation of those findings, and changes made in (or planned) the program as a result. Describe the steps the faculty has taken to use information from assessments for improvement of both candidate performance and the program. This information should be organized around: 1. Content knowledge

2. Ability to fulfill identified professional responsibilities

3. Ability to promote student achievement
