Download or read book State Teacher Policy Yearbook written by National Council on Teacher Quality and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The "State Teacher Policy Yearbook" examines what is arguably the single most powerful authority over the teaching profession: state government. This Nevada edition of the National Council on Teacher Quality's (NCTQ's) "State Teacher Policy Yearbook" is the first of what will be an annual look at the status of state policies impacting the teaching profession. It is hoped that this report will help focus attention on areas where state policymakers could make improvements to benefit both students and teachers. This policy evaluation is broken down into six areas that include a total of 27 goals. Broadly, these goals examine the impact of state policy on the preparation, certification, licensure, compensation and effectiveness of teachers across the elementary, secondary and special education spectra. Nevada's progress toward meeting these goals is summarized. Overall, Nevada lags behind most other states in implementing teacher-related policy. Nevada completely missed 16 goals, met a small portion of three, partially met five, nearly met two and fully met only one. While the state needs to improve in all goal areas, Nevada has the most work to do in Area 5, "Alternate Routes to Certification," and Area 6, "Preparation of Special Education Teachers." Nevada stands out for funding differential pay initiatives that link teacher compensation to district and school needs and help achieve a more equitable distribution of teachers among schools. The state could further strengthen its teacher compensation policies by reintroducing a performance pay program, one that would reward teachers for student-achievement gains. The state should also work to ensure that special education teacher candidates receive the training they need to become highly qualified. In addition, the state should consider offering at least one genuine alternate route to certification. The body of the report provides a more detailed breakdown of the state's strengths and weaknesses in each area. Detailed rationale and "Food for Thought" for each area and corresponding goal are appended. (Contains 72 figures.) [Additional funding for this first edition of the "State Teacher Policy Yearbook" was provided by the Achelis Foundation, Bodman Foundation, Daniel's Fund, Fisher Family Foundation, Gleason Foundation, and The Teaching Commission. This state report is part of NCTQ's State Teacher Policy Yearbook series. For the national summary, see ED506661.].

Download or read book Exploring Nevada Through Project Based Learning written by Carole Marsh and published by Gallopade International. This book was released on 2016-04-01 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exploring Nevada through Project-Based Leaning includes 50 well-thought-out projects designed for grades 3-5. In assigning your students projects that dig into NevadaÕs geography, history, government, economy, current events, and famous people, you will deepen their appreciation and understanding of Nevada while simultaneously improving their analytical skills and ability to recognize patterns and big-picture themes. Project-based learning today is much different than the craft-heavy classroom activities popular in the past. Inquiry, planning, research, collaboration, and analysis are key components of project-based learning activities today. However, that doesnÕt mean creativity, individual expression, and fun are out. They definitely arenÕt! Each project is designed to help students gain important knowledge and skills that are derived from standards and key concepts at the heart of academic subject areas. Students are asked to analyze and solve problems, to gather and interpret data, to develop and evaluate solutions, to support their answers with evidence, to think critically in a sustained way, and to use their newfound knowledge to formulate new questions worthy of exploring. While some projects are more complex and take longer than others, they all are set up in the same structure. Each begins with the central project-driving questions, proceeds through research and supportive questions, has the student choose a presentation option, and ends with a broader-view inquiry. Rubrics for reflection and assessments are included, too. This consistent framework will make it easier for you assign projects and for your students to follow along and consistently meet expectations. Encourage your students to take charge of their projects as much as possible. As a teacher, you can act as a facilitator and guide. The projects are structured such that students can often work through the process on their own or through cooperation with their classmates.

This book was released on 2011 with total page 14 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As Nevada struggles in this difficult time of recession and high unemployment, it is time to acknowledge that only through a robust and adequately funded education infrastructure and, in particular, higher education will the State ever achieve the diversification and growth all Nevadans need. Nevada must make a long term commitment to excellence in its colleges and universities and to the level of funding necessary to support that excellence. In the immediate circumstances, however, it is incumbent on the State's public colleges and universities, its primary economic engine, to examine carefully how they can perform within the limited resources available today, ensuring that the State is positioned as best as it can be to recruit, retain, and grow the industries and businesses needed for a brighter future. This paper proposes a plan for promoting greater efficiencies and enhanced performance that will translate directly to more students graduating with degrees or certificates to build the State's economy.

This book was released on 2004 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This profile uniquely presents a variety of educational and socioeconomic information for Nevada County, nearby counties, and the state. The profile highlights the relationship between various factors that affect the economic well-being of individuals and communities. This presentation of information provides a framework for enhanced communication and collaboration between the myriad agencies, at both the state and local level, that have responsibility for education, economic development, workforce training, or social services. The relationship between educational attainment and income is clearly depicted by the maps on pages 4 and 10. These maps, along with the other data presented in the profile, unmistakably show how socioeconomic conditions vary from place to place in California. This geographic variation must be taken into consideration in the development, implementation, and evaluation of policies to give Californians better opportunities to succeed in school and in life. Highlights for the county include: 25% of recent high school graduates completed college preparatory courses, compared to 35% statewide; 14% of recent high school graduates entered CSU or UC, compared to 18% statewide; and 26% of the county population has a Bachelor's or higher-level degree, compared to 27% statewide.
