Welcome to the web site for Eastern Michigan University's
2003 National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE) accreditation
and State of Michigan approval documentation!
In
1997, we were the first institution in the country authorized to submit professional
education accreditation/state approval materials
electronically instead of on paper. The primary purpose of this 2003
site, which was
started
immediately after the 1997 NCATE/State visit, is to make our materials
available electronically to Specialized Professional Association (SPA)
reviewers, to
the 2003 Board of Examiners team members, and to reviewers at the state
level. In addition, this is to make our materials available to other
significant parties
in the NCATE accreditation and state approval processes, to the professional
education community at large, and of considerable importance, to the
total Eastern Michigan University community of faculty, staff, and
students.
By
clicking on the appropriate headings given in this Institutional Report,
the reader
will be taken to the material that we have prepared on the
subject. Numerous
links take the
reader to greater detail on most matters. In addition, this web site
includes a search mechanism.
Much
appreciation is expressed to Robert Winterhalter, Patti Maihofer, Grover
Thomas, Kirk
Nagel, Bert Greene, and many others for assistance
in the preparation
of the original 1997 web site, portions of which have remained intact
or have been updated for the 2003 reviews as well. While the substance
of the 2003
web site represents the contributions of far too many people to mention
here, but whose assistance is deeply appreciated, the site development
itself has
been primarily performed by the COE webmaster, Valerie Hughes, assisted
by Srinivas Paluri and Pawan Chennama. Deep appreciation is expressed
to Ms. Hughes
and her team.
The
initial support of the late Ronald Collins, Provost and Vice President for
Academic
Affairs, and the continuing support and encouragement
of
his successor in that office, Paul Schollaert, have been significant
in numerous ways, not
the least of which has been to permit us to make this web site possible
at a high level of quality.
Our programming is guided by the following theme statements:
Caring professional educators for a diverse and democratic society. (Initial)
Inquiry, advocacy, and leadership in education for a diverse and democratic
society.(Advanced)
