Board
of Regents offers national board certification pre-candidate course
A
3-credit graduate course will be offered by all five public universities that
have teacher education programs for practicing teachers who are interested in
pursuing certification from the National Board for Professional Teaching
Standards. The course has been developed as a pre-candidate course for
teachers interested in pursuing national board certification as well as a
course for personal professional development. In conjunction with South
Dakota’s Teacher Quality Enhancement Grant, EveryTeacher, and the high
quality professional development requirements of Title II, Part A of No
Child Left Behind, faculty of the Board of Regents have developed EDFN 790
Seminar: Enhancing Professional Practice while Exploring National Board
Certification.
Experienced classroom teachers will use the National Board for Professional
Teaching Standards (NBPTS) certification process as a vehicle to examine their
practice and to direct further professional growth. Teachers will have
opportunities to practice analyzing student work, to develop sample portfolio
entries, and to experience formative assessment exercises for the standards of
their content certification area. A minimum of 2 years of teaching experience
is strongly recommended. (3 credits)
