The data project is a collaborative effort to provide teacher preparation programs, within US PREP institutions, the information they need to develop exemplary teachers who are ready from day one to teach effectively and to engage and inspire students to move to even higher levels of achievement. The work is being led by US PREP Executive Director, Sarah Beal and Marcelo Schmidt, US PREP Director of Data & Continuous Improvement.
“When programs are able to easily access data on their teacher candidates’ performance, the result doesn’t just affect the teacher candidates who are being trained,” said Beal. “It also affects the faculty who are training them, the administrators who lead the teacher preparation programs, the school districts where the candidates are trained, and the K-12 students who are being taught by our candidates.”
