  • 2018 Baccalaureate 45Th Commencement Celebration
    2018 Baccalaureate 45th Commencement Celebration Thursday, May 3, 2018 12 Noon William J. Seymour Chapel at the Assemblies of God Theological Seminary 1435 N. Glenstone Avenue, Springfield, Missouri Baccalaureate Program accalaureate at the Assemblies of God Theological Seminary (AGTS) Backnowledges several streams of influence. The medieval academic tradition is part of the seminary culture, so there are measures of formality: robes that reflect various academic disciplines and certain ceremonial dimensions that are integral to this event. AGTS is firmly rooted in the Pentecostal faith tradition. We affirm worship that is celebratory and vibrant, and we welcome the dynamics of the Holy Spirit in our congregational life. We are committed to the redemptive ministry of Jesus Christ that is empowered by the Holy Spirit. These elements of the Pentecostal tradition are also integral to the AGTS baccalaureate. AGTS is committed to thoroughness in graduate theological education. Ceremonial dimensions of this event acknowledge our graduates’ significant achievements in study. The celebratory dimensions demonstrate our belief that today’s graduates are people of destiny in God’s eternal plan of redemption. *PRELUDE AND PROCESSIONAL INVOCATION AND WELCOME RENÉE GRIFFITH CAROL A.

  • PELSB-Approved Teacher Preparation Providers
    DATE: March 27th, 2020 TO: PELSB-Approved Teacher Preparation Providers FROM: Alex Liuzzi, Executive Director RE: Discretionary Variances-Student Teaching The Teacher Preparation Committee met on Wednesday, March 25, 2020 to review variance requests from 28 providers from across the state who have expressed major concerns with their candidates’ abilities to complete the student teaching requirements, as well as other program requirements, as set forth in administrative rule, given the state-wide school closures and other efforts to curb the spread of COVID-19. First, and foremost, the Teacher Preparation Committee wants to acknowledge that the COVID-19 pandemic is creating unprecedented circumstances for our preparation providers, candidates, and school partners. The committee wants to thank the many providers who submitted variance requests and information about the status of their student teachers and other impacted candidates on such short notice. The information and context was invaluable. On March 27, 2020, the Teacher Preparation Committee presented these extenuating circumstances to the Board. Based on the Teacher Preparation Committee’s recommendation, the Board approved the following discretionary variances for certain teacher preparation providers: Variances of Minnesota Rule 8705.1000, subp. 3G for teacher candidates who have completed 10 weeks or more of face-to-face student teaching with the conditions listed below. Variances of Minnesota Rule 8705.1000, subp. 3G for teacher candidates who have completed 6 - 9 weeks of face-to-face student teaching supplemented by online or distance learning student teaching for a total of 10 weeks of student teaching (weeks do not have to be continuous) with the conditions listed below.

  • MACTE Minute February 2020
    Minnesota Association of Colleges for Teacher Education Dr. Rhonda Bonnstetter, President Bob Utke, Executive Assistant [email protected] 507-227-1459 [email protected] 612-759-7878 February 2020 MACTE Minute MACTE was pleased to co-sponsor an event at Southwest Minnesota State University in January focused on addressing the teacher shortage and teacher diversity in rural Minnesota. Governor Walz joined us to provide the opening address and a commitment to support these efforts. We know that you share our concern about the state’s ability to attract, prepare, and retain a sufficient quantity of well- prepared teachers to serve in classrooms across the state and a teaching force that reflects the diversity of the students in those classrooms. We were pleased that Tyra Reck joined us to present information summarized from PELSB’s Supply and Demand Report and Tiered Licensure Report for this important discussion. At the January convening, the group used an approach developed by our co-sponsor, the Minnesota Education Equity Partnership, to identify barriers and solutions in four categories: explore, become, grow, and thrive. These reflect a continuum from recruiting individuals into teaching and preparing them to begin their teaching careers to helping them grow within the communities in which they live and teach and thriving in their chosen profession. Some of the strategies identified reflect ideas to improve or build upon work already underway or in development across the state, like opportunities for middle and high school students to explore teaching and Grow-Your-Own programs, and while others have emerged as new approaches worth further consideration, including new alumni mentoring and community partnership programs and housing subsidies.

  • National Student Satisfaction and Priorities Report
    2009 NATIONAL RESEARCH REPORT National Student Satisfaction and Priorities Report Are college students satisfi ed with their educational experiences? Each year, the National Student Satisfaction and Priorities Report examines this subject, compiling data from hundreds of thousands of students attending four-year public campuses, four-year private institutions, two-year community colleges, and private two-year career schools. This report highlights some key areas, including how satisfaction levels differ by student demographic variables, how satisfaction varies by institutional choice, and whether today’s students— if they had to do it all over—would choose the campuses they currently attend. Table of contents... The 2009 study: Discovering national trends and opportunities for improvement .............................................................................. 3 Satisfaction and likelihood to re-enroll: The overall results ................. 4 Institutional choice: A key element in satisfaction ............................... 4 2008 fi rst-year students: College choice also impacts satisfaction ........ 5 Ethnicity reports: Lower satisfaction among African-American and Asian students ........................................................................... 7 GPA reports: Academic success breeds satisfaction ............................ 8 Class level reports: Declining likelihood of re-enrolling at private institutions ........................................................................... 9 Gender reports: Greater satisfaction

As this issue of the NCU Magazine goes to print, the class of 2009 is just a few days away from graduation. Like all of the many graduating classes before them, this year’s class is a group of young men and women ready to make an impact. These young men and women will be the pastors, business leaders, teachers, social workers and musicians who continue to take the love of Christ to people all around the world. Their gradu- ation marks the beginning of continued good reports for years to come. Not only that, but they are about to experience firsthand that the value of completing your degree has only grown as a result of this more competitive job market. Now, with the addition of the CareerWire network offered through the Student Success Center, NCU is even better prepared to help them and all of our alumni find employment in their field of study. Another good report we are excited to share with you is the continued progress North Central has made in the area of academic excellence.
