Kerby Anderson Commentary Teacher Certification September 15, 2000 Talk about teacher certification has been in the news for years, and I have always wondered how effective certification exams would be and how hard they would be. Well, I got part of the answer from a recent story by a New York Times reporter who took New York state's main certification exam for teachers. In her August 23 story, she explained that she had not taken a standardized test in 14 years and had virtually no preparation. She admits to having failed pre-calculus in high school. She also took no science after 10th grade chemistry. Nevertheless, she scored 284 out of a possible 300. By the way, 220 is passing. So she did quite well on the test. She got a perfect score in math and science. But she was mortified to report that her worst score was 260, and she received it on the essay portion of the test. That was still a passing score, but I guess you might expect a New York Times reporter to do better than that. By the way, of the 4314 people who took the test, 59 percent failed. This story was reported in the communique of the Education Intelligence Agency. The author recounts his own experience taking the California Basic Educational Skills Test. He scored 205 out of a possible 240. Yes, and his worst score was in writing.

Specific Requirements for Teacher Certificication INTRODUCTION Local leaders and members are currently faced with many problems and questions concerning certification.

Please bear in mind that this Information Bulletin is for INFORMATION ONLY , and is not to be considered as an official interpretation of the rules and regulations of the Commissioner.

You Are Here: Home NCLB Ready? No Child Left Behind Is Oregon Ready to ‘Leave No Child Behind’? In education circles, Oregon is known for its innovative approaches to school improvement. But the No Child Left Behind Act raises the bar considerably. How prepared is Oregon to carry out the provisions of this landmark legislation? The answer, according to state education officials, is encouraging. “Oregon is well-positioned to implement the federal legislation,” says Kate Dickson, Deputy Superintendent of Public Instruction. “For the past 10 years, we’ve been developing high standards and aligning assessments to those standards. We established a report card program and statewide system for collecting and reporting student achievement results. Oregon’s goals, drawn from the Oregon Educational Act for the 21st Century, provide a strong foundation to meet and exceed the new federal requirements.” Here’s a brief look at how Oregon stacks up against the requirements outlined in NCLB. Alignment of content and assessment Oregon already has a unified accountability system - statewide content standards and student assessments that are fully aligned.
