Expanding partnership at IUPUI

Several faculty members began new administrative roles in the Indiana University School of Education on July 1, including new appointments to the roles of executive associate dean. Professor of Higher Education and Student Affairs Don Hossler returns for a second term as executive associate dean on the Bloomington campus. Hossler served in the position for one year until IU appointed him as vice chancellor for enrollment services from 1997 to 2006. At the IU School of Education at IUPUI, Pat Rogan, professor of secondary spe- cial education, takes over the position of executive associate dean. She was chair of secondary education, and served as chair of graduate studies and continu- ing professional development from 2002–2005.

IU teachers make good hires Most principals think highly of the teachers they’ve hired from IU, according to a new study commissioned by the Indiana University School of Education. The study of 112 principals covered opinions on 139 graduates from the Bloomington campus between 2003 and 2006. The Center for Evaluation and Education Policy (CEEP), Indiana’s leading non-partisan education policy research center and part of the IU School of Education, conducted the study as part of a continuing effort to contribute to the knowledge base that the school uses to improve the quality of pre-service teacher education. The study was designed to answer two questions: In the opinion of the principals, how well prepared are teachers who are graduates of the IUB SOE? What are the strengths and weaknesses of the IUB Teacher Education Program? Among the findings about IUB graduates: • Principals think IUB graduates are stronger in selected teaching skills compared to graduates of other teacher preparation programs. • Principals are more positive about IUB graduates’ performance compared to that of graduates of other teacher preparation programs they’ve recently hired. • A majority of teachers were assigned to teach in the areas for which they were prepared at the IUB SOE. • In the area of content knowledge, both elementary and secondary education teachers were found to be well prepared to teach their subjects. • In regard to knowledge using effective instructional strategies, teachers were found to be prepared strongly or excellently. • Principals were pleased with IUB graduates’ performance in providing personalized learning for students compared to graduates of other teacher education programs. • Principals were asked how well IUB graduates provide meaningful experience by managing the classroom environment to maximize learning. When examined by school size, locale, and school level, graduates performed best in urban fringe areas at both elementary and secondary schools. CHUCK CARNEY

The Indiana University School of Education formally marked its 100th-anniversary with a ceremony at the Wright Education Building at IU Bloomington on Mon- day, Nov. 17. IU President Michael McRobbie and IU Bloomington Provost Karen Hanson joined Dean Gerardo Gonzalez and other dignitaries to mark the occasion. President McRobbie pointed out the school’s growth from humble beginnings. Noting the first efforts at pre- paring teachers at IU started as early as 1851, McRobbie told of a single professor with a daunting task — Dan- iel Read, a professor of didactics, had the first and sole responsibility of teacher preparation. “Now the School of Education includes hundreds of faculty members across the state who not only train tomorrow’s teachers but also (left) Meier delivers keynote at anniversary dinner.
