What is the conceptual framework?
Our educator preparation programs are centered on several aims designed to prepare professionals who (1) understand and apply the moral dimensions of teaching, (2) demonstrate academic excellence, (3) act with social competence, and (4) engage in meaningful collaboration. These aims together with the University aims provide a shared vision for our licensure programs. They provide direction for all aspects of the programs, including admissions, coursework design, candidate performance and assessment, and unit accountability.
