When the Department of Public Education (DPI) shifted the requirements\u202ffor certifying English Language Arts teachers because of state mandates, the School of Education\u2019s English Education team chose to reimagine the program.\u202fKristine\u202fLize, director of the English Education program, led the effort, with financial support\u202ffrom the Women\u2019s Giving Circle\u202ffor the part-time instructors’ book purchases necessary for this work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Key changes included the expansion of the program to prepare educators to teach students English Language Arts in grades 4-12 (previously grades 6-12) as well as prepare them to teach speech and journalism. The shift in grade-level meant an increased emphasis on reading instruction and vocabulary development. In addition, the program redesign considered the most recent scholarship as well as its longstanding focus on urban education and used the opportunity to ground the program in anti-racist teaching practices.\u202f\u202f <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As part of the redesign, instructors personally purchased new instructional resources\u202ffor the methods courses.\u202fThe Women\u2019s Giving Circle was able to reimburse the instructors, all of whom redesigned the program and the courses without compensation, for the cost of these materials.\u202f\u202f <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Part of the work also involved developing methods courses and field supervision support grounded in culturally based practices, according to\u202fLize. The team met weekly after working hours, on weekends, and during the summer months to collaborate on the program redesign.\u202f\u202f \u202f <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The project helped prepare aspiring teachers going through the program to be anti-racist educators and change agents. \u202f <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
