TPI Support
Working Group Fall Meeting Summary
The Support Working
Group is comprised of eight P-12 teachers and instructional coaches and five
SCSU Faculty. This group met each month through fall semester, 2013. A brief
summary of their work is provided below.
Faculty Involvement in P-12 Induction
Programs
The Support Working
Group completed work on the proposal: “Faculty Involvement in P-12 Induction
Programs” during fall semester. The
proposal’s primary consideration is the development of a clearly identifiable
mechanism by which Saint Cloud State University’s faculty can be actively
involved in new teacher induction in the TPI Partner Districts. Each Partner District
has implemented an induction program that specifically fits their needs while
maintaining a similar foundation rooted in the data identified by the Support
Working Group in its preliminary stages of research for new teacher induction.
The goal of this proposal is to identify areas in which SCSU faculty can take
on active roles in supporting new teachers in induction programs.
Support for all SCSU Graduates
The group’s current work
has a focus on supporting SCSU Graduates whether they are teaching in our TPI Partner
Districts or elsewhere around the globe. This support will take place in an
online format. We are consulting with SCSU and other entities regarding
potential platforms. We are focusing the content on current initiatives in our
P-12 Partner District Induction Programs that have been assessed and are making
a positive impact on new teachers and the students they teach.
How do you think SCSU
Faculty and P-12 Educators could be involved in an online system of support for
new teachers in our Partner Districts and SCSU Graduates around the globe?
