Report: Teacher prep programs inadequate

From: Education Daily
Sharon Robinson, president of the American Association of Colleges for Teacher Education welcomed the report, saying she particularly supported the need to enhance the clinical development component in most programs. “Universities have to go off campus, provide the opportunities to learn skills of practice in a setting of practice with highly skilled practitioners,” she said. Still, Robinson said it’s time to move away from finger-pointing toward finding solutions. “What is needed now is action.”
