goals and activities: goal 4 - activity 1
activity
1: reconstitute the pre-service teacher education task force
the first activity
is to reconstitute the pre-service
teacher education task force described under the activities
related to goal 1. in designing the master’s degree program,
the task force will use an approach similar to that used in the
revision of the pre-service teacher education program. once again,
there will be dual focus on improving content and methods, with
an emphasis on integrating them using lee shulman’s concept
of “pedagogical content knowledge.” in their work, the
task force would have to address several questions. for example,
how can/should the master’s degree program be connected with
the revised pre-service teacher education program? also, how can/should
the master’s degree program accommodate teachers who received
their undergraduate degrees at other higher education institutions?
this activity will be completed during year 3.
