  • Edtpa: an Assessment That Reduces the Quality of Teacher Education
    Teachers College, Columbia University Working Papers in TESOL & Applied Linguistics, 2014, Vol. 14, No. 1, pp. 28-30 The Forum edTPA: An Assessment that Reduces the Quality of Teacher Education Stephanie Chiu Hunter College, City University of New York As one of the first students in my TESOL teacher education program to complete my edTPA submission, I recently shared my experience with a class where the majority of the students were at the beginning of their program. Afterwards, one of my classmates expressed that while my presentation was informative, it was also very depressing. My student teaching seminar this past semester should have been one of the most valuable and insightful experiences of my teacher development program. My class consisted of peers whom I have grown to respect over the course of our program, and a legendary professor who is able to espouse the ideals of teaching and working with emergent bilinguals and their families, while also tackling the realities of teaching in an urban public school. Nonetheless, my peers and I ended the semester describing our edTPA-focused student teaching seminar not as “inspiring” or “practical for our teaching,” but rather as “painful” and “as smooth as possible” considering the circumstances. Pre-service teachers should be taught how to use teaching and learning as opportunities for self-empowerment and advancing social justice. We should be taught how to critically reflect on issues of identity, race, ethnicity, gender, and sexuality, as well as question the historical, sociocultural, and political contexts in which education is situated. Our student teaching seminar should be a supportive space to share successes and challenges, to discuss strategies, and to troubleshoot problems.

  • 2012-13, the Program Now Sponsors 20 Competitive Intercollegiate Teams – Including Eight Teams That Have Been Established Or Re-Established Since 2007 Alone
    A staple in the New York region and an emerging program on the nationalQuick stage, the Facts Manhattanville and College Athletic Contents Department continues to bolster its reputation as a program on the rise in all areas: athletic achievement, academic success and overall participation. More than 325 Valiant student-athletes (nearly 20 percent of the student body) took part in intercollegiate athletics during the 2011-12 school year showcasing the continued and rapid growth of athletics at Manhattanville. With women’s golf beginning play as a varsity sport in 2012-13, the program now sponsors 20 competitive intercollegiate teams – including eight teams that have been established or re-established since 2007 alone. And teams at Manhattanville do not just compete, they win. Three teams earned conference regular-season or tournament championships in 2011-12 and two Valiant squads (men’s soccer and men’s golf) made an appearance in the NCAA Tournament. Fifteen of 21 Valiant squads earned berths in their respective conference championships last year, including the third straight title and seventh in 11 seasons for men’s golf. In addition, the men’s hockey, men’s golf and women’s hockey teams all received national rankings over the course of the year. On an individual level, many Valiant student-athletes were honored in 2011-12 as well, led by All-America selections Eros Olazabal (men’s soccer) and Dan Fiorito (baseball). Manhattanville also boasted three Freedom Conference Players of the Year and two Freedom Rookies of the Year to go with 47 combined All-Conference honorees. In recent years, at least 35 former Valiants have gone on to play their sport professionally either domestically or overseas as well.
