Meeting the highly qualified teacher challenge is one that necessitates pertinent training at both the preservice and inservice levels for West Virginia’s classroom teachers. The nineteen institutions with West Virginia approved professional preparation programs are charged to provide the training necessary for their graduates to meet the growing needs of students in West Virginia’s classrooms. The Quality of Teacher Preparation in West Virginia examines the quality of teacher preparation in the eighteen institutions of higher education that have West Virginia approved professional preparation programs. The publication contains information regarding the demographics of program completers, the requirements of field experiences and student teaching, as well as the performance of program completers on the state and institutional assessments. For this publication, a program completer is defined as an individual who has completed an approved professional preparation program in West Virginia and qualifies for a Provisional Professional Teaching Certificate in West Virginia. The information provided pertains to the 1,165 individuals who qualify as 1,552 program completers for school year September 1, 2007 through August 31, 2008. You are encouraged to use The Quality of Teacher Preparation in West Virginia to assist you in the development of educational policies and programs. Inquiries regarding this publication should be directed to Nathan Estel, Executive Director or Kellie Crawford, Coordinator, Office of Professional Preparation. Steve Paine State Superintendent of Schools MAJOR CONCLUSIONS The first higher education institution in West Virginia to begin preparing teachers was Fairmont State College in 1865. West Virginia’s higher education institutions have been preparing teachers for a combined total of 1,745 years. The 19 professional preparation programs in West Virginia are fully accredited by the North Central Association while 12 of the institutions have also earned accreditation from the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE) and 3 have earned accreditation from the Teacher Education Accreditation Council (TEAC). A program completer is defined as an individual who has completed a West Virginia approved professional preparation program and qualifies for a Provisional Professional Certificate in West Virginia. Individuals who complete more than one content specialization are counted as a program completer for each content specialization they complete. Between September 1, 2007 and August 31, 2008, 1,165 students completed professional preparation programs in West Virginia while 1,552 were identified as program completers. Based on demographic data contained in Tables 2, 3 and 9, the typical 2007-2008 program completer is white (1,142 or 98%), female (910 or 78%), traditional (770 or 66%), and majors in Elementary Education (552 or 47%). During the 2007-2008 school year, 1,992 individuals were enrolled in Teacher Education, of which 1,165 completed the program. A total of 1,350 individuals completed student teaching during the 2001-2002 school year. Student teachers completed an average of 13.5 weeks and 537.9 clock hours of student teaching for an average of 39.8 hours per week. A total of 337 faculty supervised the 1,350 student teachers during the 2007-2008 school year for an average of 4.7 student teachers per supervising faculty. Institutions placed students in 645 schools, of which 269 are designated as Title I schools, to complete various field experiences and student teaching. A total of 55,525 special education students are serviced by the 269 schools. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The Quality of Teacher Preparation in West Virginia is a publication that evolved from a West Virginia Department of Education collaborative, statewide initiative with the state’s higher education institutions. The Office of Professional Preparation within the Division of Educator Quality and System Support is responsible for the design, compilation, and distribution of the information contained in the report.

  • R.B.A. Student Handbook
    REGENTS BACHELOR OF ARTS (R.B.A.) DEGREE PROGRAM STUDENT HANDBOOK SHEPHERD UNIVERSITY REGENTS BACHELOR OF ARTS (R.B.A.) DEGREE PROGRAM STUDENT HANDBOOK R.B.A. Mission Statement The Regents Bachelor of Arts degree is a program designed for adult students. It pro- vides a structured, yet flexible means of pursuing a baccalaureate degree. In addition to regular college coursework, this unique program allows students with diverse life and work experiences to prepare evaluation materials for possible college equivalent credit. Overview The R.B.A. program assumes that adults have different needs and goals than tradi- tional undergraduates; time, space, and program requirements are designed to meet the special needs of the adult learner. The program is designed to provide students with a comprehensive general education without the requirement of a major or a minor. It is a flexible, yet structured program that provides incentive for the mature student to return to college studies. It also meets the needs of many adults who have had no previous college work. The R.B.A. program was created by the West Virginia State Board of Regents in 1975. Although that board no longer exists, the degree program continues in the 10 public colleges and universities in the state: Shepherd University, West Virginia University, Bluefield State College, Concord University, Glenville State College, West Virginia University Institute of Technology, West Liberty University, Fairmont State Univer- sity, West Virginia State University, and Marshall University. Frequently Asked Questions about the “Value” of the Regents B.A. Degree Q. Can I go on to graduate or professional school with a R.B.A.
