| Abstract: | The Academy for Educational Development (AED) sent a research team to Western Oregon University (WOU) on November 17-18, 2008, to conduct interviews with individuals who play important roles in the university's teacher preparation program. These interviews, along with additional materials provided by WOU and identified by the AED research team, provide the basis for this case study. This case study is one of nine prepared by AED to document evidence of institutional change in teacher preparation at nine of the 30 universities that took part in the Teachers for A New Era (TNE) Learning Network. AED selected the nine universities based upon a variety of factors, including their degree of engagement in the Learning Network and their willingness to participate in a series of case studies that explored progress toward site-specific program objectives related to one or more of the TNE design principles. Interviewees are appended. (Contains 3 footnotes.) |
