Excellent Teachers For High-performance Schoolsnoblex1
Teacher quality has been one of the most hotly debated education policy issues over the past ten years. Central to the discussions are strategies to align teacher education and professional development programs at colleges and universities with the reform of K-12 education.
In many states, public officials have joined K-12 and postsecondary education leaders to restructure teacher preparation and professional development programs under the auspices of statewide K-16 initiatives. And yet, according to a national commission on teaching, America is still a very long way from realizing that future.
Colleges and universities often have been criticized for contributing to the deficiencies of K-12 schools. Year in and year out, schools of education produce graduates who staff the great majority of our nation's classrooms, with usually significant prowess. At the same time, schools of education are assigned much of the blame for all that is imperfect or lacking in K-12. Common sense suggests that there is plenty of blame to go around and that schools of education can only do what their profession and their universities permit them to do. That said, much stands in the way of their becoming what they must be to produce uniformly excellent teachers for reformed high-performance schools.
It is disappointing that higher education in general has had so little involvement in the contemporary school reform initiatives, thus, begging the question of the relationship of higher education to the K-12 enterprise and the consequences thereof for teacher education.
Work in the states is being supported by a number of national initiatives aimed at reforming the teaching profession, from recruitment to initial preparation, to the transition of the beginning years of teaching, and throughout continuing professional development. These national blueprints for achieving quality in teacher education serve to involve interested states as partners in the design and implementation of effective strategies and programs.
This policy brief will examine state-level strategies aimed at incorporating quality teacher education and professional development programs as part of new state K-16 or P-16 systems. It includes analyses of critical components that contribute to the success of the initiatives. The brief concludes with suggestions of what more could be done to strengthen the preparation and development of quality teachers within states' P-16 paradigms.
The new initiative has identified five goals:
1. To improve student achievement from preschool through postsecondary educa-tion;
2. To help students move smoothly from one education system to another;
3. To ensure that all students who enter postsecondary education are prepared to succeed;
4. To increase access and success of all students in postsecondary education, especially from minority and low income groups;

Help New Teachers Establish Themselves Professionallynoblex1
The involvement of higher education institutions in induction is less prevalent than it should be, given the promise these partnerships offer for improving teacher preparation by redefining the boundaries between college and K-12 classrooms. Sadly, the scarcity of this type of collaboration is a missed opportunity to provide new teachers a link between their pre-service and in-ser-vice teacher development and a missed opportunity for college faculty and school-based personnel to benefit from one another's expertise, open lines of communication, collaborate on projects, share facilities, and benefit in myriad ways.
Collaboration can take many forms and can include teamwork with one or more educational partners involved in supporting beginning teachers - the union, institutions of higher education, the local school board, parents, the state educational agency, the business community, and others.
District-university partnerships can offer benefits to new and experienced teachers alike, from a continued relationship with the university for the novice teacher/alumnus, to possible compensation (in the form of university course vouchers) for veteran teachers who serve as mentors.
If your induction activities are voluntary you will need to encourage new teachers to participate. Remember that new teachers often are overwhelmed by the heavy load they carry. Offer some of the following incentives:
- Extra planning time
- Money for materials
- Limited extracurricular duties
- Reduced workload
- Release time to observe other teachers
- Priority placement in staff development workshops
- Assistance toward earning a master's degree in the first or second year of teaching
- Continuing education credits toward district salary increments
Beginning teachers and mentors who volunteer to participate in the program are required to enroll in graduate courses tailored to their needs. Mentors and mentees visit each other's classes at least once per semester, hold weekly meetings in the fall, and meet at least twice a month in the spring. Experienced teachers who assume mentoring responsibilities do so in addition to their teaching duties.
You already may provide one or more induction program components: orientation activities to introduce novice teachers to your district; support systems, including mentors, to assist teachers as they develop; training in the form of courses, workshops, or ongoing professional development; and/or evaluation designed to foster teacher improvement and/or to determine a teacher's future with the district.
It is important to ensure that all aspects of your program relate to one another and address your district's particular needs. You will need to consider such issues as district standards for teachers and students, and the extent to which students from teacher preparation institutions are prepared to face the challenges in your schools.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

RPMS TEMPLATE FOR SCHOOL YEAR 2023-2024 FOR TEACHER 1 TO TEACHER 3
Leandro principals work group priorities - September 2019
1. 9/9/2019
Commission on Access to Sound Basic Education
Principal Work Group
Draft Priorities
1. Align the state’s school administrator preparation standards with the National Education
Leadership Preparation (NELP) standards from the National Policy Board for
Educational Administration.
2. Require full-time, year-long internships for students seeking a school administrator
certification and provide stipends and/or salaries for these students.
3. Ensure that school administrator training includes information on
Early brain development and appropriate practices for early childhood learning
Social-emotional needs of students
Role of specialized instructional support personnel (SISP) and how to effectively
leverage SISP in supporting student health and wellness.
Teacher retention and support
Collaborative leadership and decision-making
Community engagement
Instructional leadership
School safety
4. Expand the Principal Fellows Program to provide more fellowships to more students and
ensure that program’s internship stipend is competitive so that high-quality candidates
will pursue the program by
Tying internship stipend amount to the fellow’s year of experience on the salary
schedule for assistant principals
Ensuring that fellows will not be subject to a loss in pay during their internship
year.
5. Scale preparation programs like the Northeast Leadership Academy (NELA) and the
Transforming Principal Preparation Program (TP3) so that every school district has a
partnership with at least one principal preparation program. These partnerships should be
focused on training potential school administrators selected by district leadership in high-
quality programs with a full-time, full-year internship. In scaling the partnerships, the
state needs to ensure that the replicated programs are of the same quality as the pilot
programs. These partnerships should also strategically focus on recruiting, preparing,
and supporting a geographically and demographically diverse group of school
administrators to help ensure that our state’s school administrators are more
representative of the students they are serving.
6. Create a formal statewide mentorship program for beginning assistant principals and
principals. The program would provide opportunities for veteran principals on sabbatical
or recently retired principals to coach beginning school administrators.
2. 9/9/2019
7. Expand professional development opportunities for superintendents, district
administrators, and school administrators by providing state and/or federal funding for
existing professional development opportunities and for the development of new
professional development opportunities. Professional development for superintendents
and district administrators should be focused on effective supports for school
administrators and capacity-building around effectively utilizing resources to support
schools.
8. Revise the principal salary schedule with more of an emphasis on experience and to
provide more incentives for principals to pursue school leadership opportunities that best
meet their leadership strengths (such as remaining as an elementary school principal or
leading a low-performing school).
9. Revise the allotment formula for assistant principals to both increase the number of state-
funded assistant principals and provide flexibility in the use of funds to build more school
leadership capacity. in order to more effectively staff schools with administrators.
