Questions and Answers
Does the Teachers and Personnel Grants Program Have Specific Evaluation
Requirements?
Yes, the evaluation requirements are described in Section 7149 of
Title VII of ESEA, 20 U.S.C. 7479
What Priorities Exist for the Teachers and Personnel Grants?
Fiscal Year 1999 the Department has announced an invitational
priority for applicants proposing to improve teacher preparation
programs in institutions of higher education to better prepare all
teachers to meet the needs of LEP students. In addition, the Department
has announced an invitational priority for applicants which propose to
provide special support for new bilingual teachers during their initial
teaching years. The competitive priorities for this program are (1) for
applications from institutions of higher education, in consortia with
local or State educational agencies, that offer degree programs that
prepare new bilingual education teachers in order to increase the
availability of educators to provide high-quality education to limited
English proficient students, and, (2) for programs that will contribute
to systemic educational reform in an Empowerment Zone, including a
Supplemental Empowerment Zone, or an Enterprize Community, and are made
an integral part of the Zones or Community's comprehensive
revitalization strategies.
Applicants proposing to address invitational or competitive
priorities may include in their abstracts a brief description of their
plans to address the priorities.
What Requirements Must Grantees Meet Related to Teacher Certification?
The Title VII statute requires grantees to assist educational
personnel in meeting State and local certification requirements. 20
U.S.C. 7477. However, because certification requirements vary among
States, applicants are given flexibility in designing activities that
lead to meeting State and local certification requirements.
What Activities Are Authorized Under Teachers and Personnel Grants?
Authorized activities are those which support the purpose of the
development for teachers and other educational personnel. Such
activities may include, but are not limited to, the development of
program curricula; collaboration with local school districts in
designing new teacher training activities; and reforming and improving
teacher training programs to reflect high standards of professionalism.
Only institutions of higher education, applying in consortia
arrangements with one or more local educational agencies or State
educational agencies, are eligible to apply for preservice programs.
This means the institution of higher education would be the lead agency
and the fiscal agent for the grant. State educational agencies and
local educational agencies may, however apply for inservice training
programs.
May Program Budgets Include Costs for Items Other Than Student Tuition
and Fees?
Project budgets should reflect the proposed program activities. In
addition to student support costs, budget items may include costs for
personnel, supplies or equipment, and other costs to support
developmental activities.
What Information May Be Helpful in Preparing Narrative for a Teachers
and Personnel Grant?
In responding to the selection criteria, applicants may wish to
consider the following questions as a guide for preparing application
narrative.
What are the specific responsibilities of districts,
schools, institutions of higher education, and other partnership
organizations in planning, implementing, and evaluating
[[Page 4184]]
the proposed program? What resources and support will be provided by
each of the contributing partners?
How does the training curricula reflect high standards for
pedagogy, content, and proficiency in English and a second language to
ensure that participants are effectively prepared to provide
instruction and support to LEP students?
How will the program assist in systemically reforming
policies and practices in the target schools and in the HE related to
the preparation of new teachers, the induction of new bilingual
teachers, clinical experiences for new bilingual teachers and other
educational personnel, or professional development opportunities for
all teachers?
What selection criteria will the applicant adopt to ensure
that individuals selected to participate in the program hold promise
for successfully completing program requirements?
What support will be provided to new bilingual teachers by
experienced bilingual teachers, higher education faculty, and school
administrators to guide them during their period of induction?
How will the instructional responsibilities of new
teachers be balanced with appropriate professional development, support
and planning time?
How will clinical experiences for preservice participants
be structured to ensure that they are well-supervised, of sufficient
duration and in a setting which provides opportunities for participants
to experience a variety of effective bilingual education instructional
methods and approaches?
How is the training curriculum based on current research
related to effective teaching and learning? What evidence of
effectiveness supports the training model?
What performance indicators will the proposed program use
to support the effectiveness of the program, participants, and
graduates related to for example, improved teaching practices,
performance on National or State benchmark tests; reduction in the
number of new teachers leaving the profession in targeted districts;
improvement in participant completion rates; decline in attrition, or
other performance indicators.
How will the program evaluation incorporate strategies for
assessing progress and performance of participants; communicating
meaningful, regular and timely feedback to participants; improving the
quality of the training program; identifying exemplary program
features; and reporting on specific data related to the number of
participants completing the program and the number of graduates placed
in the instructional setting?
How will the proposed program improve teacher preparation
curricula, clinical experiences and the skills and knowledge of higher
education faculty to better prepare ALL teachers in content and
pedagogy related to the needs of LEP students.
In Addition, Applicants May Wish To Consider the Department of
Education Professional Development Principles in Planning a Teachers
and Personnel Grant
The following are the professional development principles:
Focuses on teachers as central to student learning, yet
includes all other members of the school community;
Focuses on individual, collegial and organizational
improvement; Respects and nurtures the intellectual and leadership
capacity of teachers, principals, and others in the school community;
Reflects best available research and practice in teaching,
learning, and leadership;
Enables teachers to develop further expertise in subject
content, teaching strategies, uses of technologies, and other essential
elements in teaching to high standards;
Promotes continuous inquiry and improvement embedded in
the daily life of schools;
Is planned collaboratively by those who will participate
in and facilitate that development;
Requires substantial time and other resources; is driven
by a coherent long-term plan; is evaluated ultimately on the basis of
its impact on teacher effectiveness and student learning; and
Uses this assessment to guide subsequent professional
development efforts.
What Other Information May Be Helpful in Applying for a Teachers and
Personnel Grant?
Applicants are reminded that they must submit a copy of their
application to the SEA for review and comment. In addition, applicants
must submit a copy of their application to the State Single Point of
Contact to satisfy the requirements of Executive Order 12372. The SEA
review requirement and the requirements for Executive Order 12372 are
two distinct requirements.
