  • MACTE Minute May 2020
    Minnesota Association of Colleges for Teacher Education Rhonda Bonnstetter, President Bob Utke, Executive Assistant [email protected] 507-537-6100 [email protected] 612-759-7878 MACTE Minute May 8, 2020 MACTE would like to sincerely thank PELSB members and staff for their dedication and efforts to advancing education in Minnesota especially during this unprecedented time. We recognize how time intensive this spring has been, especially for members of the new Teacher Preparation Subcommittee, as each member navigated this work along with your full-time positions and personal lives. Thank you! The focus of this MACTE Minute is on the new Teacher Preparation subcommittee (TPC). According to PELSB bylaws approved in early 2020, we understand the duties of the new “TPC,” to include reviewing and making recommendations to the full board about the following: ● unit review team recommendations after site visits, ● interim reports submitted as part of unit approval processes, ● discretionary variances regarding unit standards and approval, ● Program Review Panel (PRP) recommendations for program approval (whether to adopt or take a different action than what PRP recommended), and ● discretionary variances submitted regarding program standards and approval. In each duty noted above, the 3-member TPC makes recommendations to the full board about approval or denial and, when applicable, what conditions should be established. Another important group for PELSB is the 10-member Program Review Panel (PRP). These stakeholder representatives review teacher provider program proposals, bringing multiple perspectives and peer- review to the process. The PRP has been critical to ensuring recommendations moving forward to the board are thoroughly vetted by stakeholders and innovations in teacher preparation are supported.

  • The Incarnate Word in the Written Word
    Luther's Doctrine of the Word —The Incarnate Word in the Written Word John F. Brug In a paper on “Luther’s Concept of the Word of God” first presented more than 50 years ago1 Siegbert Becker began: A generation ago the Lutheran Church in America was engaged in a controversy over whether it was sufficient to say that the Bible contains the Word of God or whether it was necessary for an orthodox Lutheran to confess that the Bible is the Word of God.2 That controversy ended in what seemed to be a total victory for the forces of conservative and orthodox Lutheranism, for there is scarcely a Lutheran in our country today who would be unwilling to say that the Bible is the Word of God.3 The triumph to which Becker referred, however, was more apparent than real. From the 1960s until today, even some of those who defended the proposition that the Bible is the Word of God ask, “In what sense is the Bible the Word of God?” To say that “the Bible is the Word of God” when one is not sure at all about what is meant by that statement can hardly be called a confession of faith. The faux triumph of a conservative view of Scripture that occurred in American Lutheranism when the ALC retained the word “inerrancy” and the LCA and later the 1 The essence of Becker’s paper was presented in different formats for various audiences. An early version known as The Word of God in the Theology of Martin Luther was presented at the Saginaw Valley Teachers Conference, Millington, Michigan, on April 19, 1963.
