School of Education’s Unit Assessment Report
2012/13
Introduction
The School of Education (SOE) celebrates the 120 undergraduate students that were awarded a degree in education and 11 students that were
awarded a degree in Career, Technical Education and Training during the 2012/13 school year. SOE undergraduate programs are committed
to achieve the vision and mission of the University and have compiled impressive data that supports that commitment. Each program has
documented gains in specific areas of focus which are reported within their program AIM reports (see Table 1). This Unit Report will provide
overview data and analysis as well as provide specific input into what has been learned from the existing assessment system and what has
been initiated as a result.

All assessment reports were shared with the Dean, Provost, SOE Advisory Board, SOE Council and SOE faculty and staff.
Consistently monitored candidate pass rates on the PPST and PRAXIS II to determine need for curricular and/or programmatic
changes (see Table 1).
Investigated potential need for increased emphasis in the curricular areas of assessment and classroom management strategies based
on EBI and Student Teacher data over time.
Selected programs worked with UW-Stout’s Career Services office to improve services for candidates in the School of Education.
SOE made the following improvements to the assessment system:
a. Designed a more efficient system of acquiring raw data regarding student participation on the PPST
b. Reviewed dissemination options for program data
c. Updated and improved the SOE Webpage
d. Provided current links to Program reports on the SOE Webpage
Improved the design of the data tracking system for the PRAXIS tutors to effectively monitor the effectiveness of the program.
Improvements to the clinical placement process continued to be initiated as provided in DPI recommendations.
Based on recommendations from DPI Consultant Paul Trilling, course content and activities for EDUC-727 were adjusted in order to
place an increased emphasis on the School of Education’s conceptual framework and assessment system. Collaboration with the field
experience coordinator and two tenured professors teaching the course took place during the design of the modifications to the format
and delivery of the course. Course objectives were not changed as a result of the modifications. The changes were implemented during
the summer of 2012 in both sections of the course. Student feedback indicated that the content and structure of the course was well
received (Appendix J).
Supervision of Pupil Services, an online training module, was created during the summer 2012 session. The module was pilot tested
during late summer/fall 2012 and went live on the web during the Fall 2012 term.

2. Implementation of the edTPA will continue to be a major
focus as the process is fully integrated into our teacher
training program.
SOE Faculty have been fully engaged in the process of implementing the
edTPA within the fabric of our teacher preparation programs. Attending
state and national conferences, participating at faculty level professional
development activities, supervising pilot programs, and conducting
summer local evaluation seminars are examples of the level of
commitment demonstrated by faculty. This goal will continue to be a
major focus for next year.
Assessment improvements and refinements will continue to be a priority
next year. Gains made this year have included:

SOE Integrated Marketing
4. Update marketing plan with a focus on increasing
enrollments of underrepresented populations and graduate
programs.
In an effort to provide meaningful information for prospective students
and their families, the School of Education’s Integrated Marketing efforts
include the following strategies:




5. Establish Technology task force with the charge to create a
technology plan for SOE.
Website – Revise the website to meet the needs of prospective
and current students preparing for a teaching major
Publication – Create a new publication that speaks to the needs
of prospective high school students interested in initial teacher
licensure majors
Student Contacts – In partnership with the UW-Stout Admissions
Office, the School of Education will coordinate call nights in
which current students will contact prospective students and
incoming freshmen.
SOE Ambassador – The staff of student ambassadors will assist
the Program Directors and the School of Education in marketing
initiatives, including, but not limited to, meeting with prospective
students and families, emailing prospective and incoming
students, and participating in student call nights.
An SOE Technology task force was established and designed a plan
for the role of technology within the department. The committee
tasked with this effort sought input from University level faculty as
well as PK-12 level faculty in order to make their recommendations
as relevant and practical as possible. A path forward for the SOE
was outlined within the final report and initiatives to follow through
with the recommendations have begun to be put into place.

Progress Implementing the Teacher Performance Assessment (edTPA)
The edTPA is a classroom-based assessment administered during the student teaching field experience. The readiness of a candidate to teach
effectively is the focus on this assessment and it includes written documents, video clips, samples of P-12 student work and written teacher
candidate reflections. DPI is requiring teacher preparation institutions in the state to begin the process of adopting this approach into their
systems in order for students to be prepared to successfully complete the edTPA by August 2015.
Stout’s SOE director continues to be actively involved in promoting the edTPA by coauthoring a UW-system grant requesting funds to host
system-wide training workshops. Statewide edTPA Workshops were held in September 2012 and May 2013. SOE leadership teams attended
both workshops. Members of these teams also created guidelines of goals for continuing the implementation process.
An SOE edTPA Implementation Committee was formed to outline the specific actions that faculty would be engaged in to integrate the
edTPA within our system.
Specific activities have included:
1.
Leadership team attended edTPA sessions at the 2012 AACTE conference
2.
Implementation Committee met regularly throughout the year to draft and evaluate progress
3.
Provided intense training for all faculty and staff during the ALL SOE meetings and Data Day. (FA 2012, SP 2013)
4.
Members of SOE leadership team joined the TPAC online community
5.
SOE Director coauthored a UW-system grant to request funds to host system-wide training
(FL2012)
6.
Stout team attended edTPA statewide workshop. (FA2012 and SP2013)
7.
Implementation Committee accepted responsibility for continuing faculty professional development activities
8.
Implementation Committee attended National edTPA Conference. (FA2012)
9.
Faculty generated training materials have been developed for orientation of new faculty

Benchmark Tracking
The UW-Stout School of Education Assessment System is designed so that candidate progress in our undergraduate and graduate programs is
reviewed at various points and data is gathered from multiple assessment measures.
Benchmark I: Acceptance into Program/School of Education
The UW-Stout School of Education Assessment System is designed so that candidate progress is reviewed at various points. Benchmark I is
the first level where candidate progress is reviewed. The purpose of the Benchmark I review process is to determine student readiness to
become a teacher candidate in one of the programs within the School of Education at the University of Wisconsin-Stout.
Note: Professional education courses and program-specific pre-clinical, clinical, methods, curriculum, and evaluation courses can be taken
only after student is accepted into teacher education via Benchmark I review.
Students must complete the following to be cleared for Benchmark I Review:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
Completed 40 semester credit hours
Cumulative GPA of 2.75 at Stout
Passed the Wisconsin Background check
Passed the PPST (score reports must be provided to the School of Education: HERH 267)
Reading 175/322
Math 173/318
Writing 174/320
6. Completed/Currently Enrolled in the required college English and speech courses; ENGL-101, ENGL-102, SPCOM-100 (minimum
grade of "C" required for Benchmark; some program standards may be higher)
7. Completed/Currently Enrolled in Introduction to the major course (minimum grade of "C" required for Benchmark; some program
standards may be higher)
8. Completed/Currently Enrolled in EDUC-326 Foundations of Education course (minimum grade of "C" required for Benchmark; some
program standards may be higher)
Page 8
The Benchmark I Review Process consists of three phases:
PHASE 1 - Application Review:
Benchmark I Application is due by February 15th for Spring Review and September 15th for Fall Review.
The candidate will receive an e-mail indicating their Application Review Status (cleared/not cleared) and provided instructions for the
Portfolio Review if they have been cleared to proceed.
PHASE 2 - Portfolio Review:
The ePortfolio will be checked to verify that it includes the following artifacts:
1.
2.
3.
4.
Signed School of Education Statement of Values and Dispositions
Resume
Philosophy Statement
Two (2) artifacts related to the subject matter the candidate will teach
PHASE 3 - Dispositional Review:
A group of program faculty will convene to perform a formal dispositional review of each candidate.
Upon completion of all three phases, candidates will be notified via e-mail whether they have successfully passed the Benchmark I
Review. 99 students successfully earned Benchmark I status during 2012-13.

PRAXIS I: Pre-Professional Skills Test
Educational Testing Service Institutional Report
The PRAXIS I: Pre-Professional Skills Test (PPST) is required for teacher certification by the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction.
Teacher candidates are not admitted into the teacher education program until they pass the PPST. The PPST is administered through the
Educational Testing Service (ETS).
The PPST consists of three tests: Reading, Writing and Mathematics. All three tests must be passed to meet the SOE Education’s Benchmark
I requirements. These tests can be taken in a handwritten format in traditional testing settings at designated sites and times or by computer at
designated sites.
ETS provides an annual institutional academic year summary report on all students attempting the PPST and passing rates. It also compares
scores of UW-Stout students to those at the state level and the national level. See Table 2, 3 and 4 for a specific data on each test area.
Note that according to PI34.14 (1) (b) Exceptions under par. (a) relating to the established passing scores on standardized tests or SCD
designed or approved assessments, or the minimum cumulative grade point average may be granted to no more than 10% of the total number
of students admitted to the initial or advanced programs for each admission period.
In 2012-13 2 exemptions were granted for the PPST Reading test, 1 for the PPST Writing test, and 1 for the PPST Mathematics test.

The Praxis Lab
The Praxis Tutor Lab employs two graduate students as Praxis Tutors. They assist undergraduate teacher education students in their
preparation for the Praxis I: Pre-Professional Skills Test. Praxis Tutors assist with test registration; individual skills development in reading,
writing, and mathematics; and serve as a central PPST resource center in order to direct students to other on-campus or off-campus Praxis
resources.

Benchmark II: Admission into Student Teaching
Benchmark II is the second level of review of candidate’s progress in the SOE assessment system. As part of the process, faculty /staff
reviewers interview initial teacher candidates to determine whether they may proceed to the student teaching portion of their programs. The
reviewers evaluate candidates’ ability to provide ePortfolio evidence of their higher level knowledge, skills, and disposition aligned to the
SOE Conceptual Framework and Standards. Candidates that successfully complete the Benchmark II review are eligible for student teaching
placement pending satisfactory completion of all required courses and evidence of passing the PRAXIS II: Subject Assessment(s).

PRAXIS II Content Test
All Wisconsin teacher education students must pass a PRAXIS II content specific test for acceptance into Benchmark II and become eligible
as a teacher candidate. No exceptions are granted by the School of Education for the PRAXIS II.
Praxis II report data is general and does not clearly differentiate among undergraduate teacher education students, graduate teacher education
students, teachers who want to add-on an additional teacher certification or the “certification only” category.
Note that the number of examinees taking a designated content test varies by content test area.
Note: The pass rate of PRAXIS II tests reported in 2012-13 was 76%.

Benchmark III: Program Completion
Benchmark III is the final review that occurs at the culmination of student teaching (clinical practice). Upon graduation, most candidates are
endorsed for appropriate licensure.
108 undergraduate students graduated meeting the requirements to obtain an initial license to teach in Wisconsin.
The UW-Stout School of Education Assessment System is designed so that candidate progress is reviewed at various points. Benchmark III is
the final review that occurs at the culmination of student teaching (clinical practice). Upon completion of all degree requirements, candidates
are endorsed for appropriate licensure.
Complete the following to be cleared for Benchmark III Review:
1. Portfolio Assessment
2. Final student teaching (clinical practice) assessment(s) including two written observations per quarter
3. Recommendation letter(s) from Cooperating Teacher(s)
4. Disposition rating(s) from Cooperating Teacher(s)
5. Instructional Technology Utilization Rubric
6. Review of alignment summary
Page 33
Student Teacher Performance Ratings
The School of Education uses Danielson’s domains and the Wisconsin Teacher Standards as components of the framework for student teacher
competency evaluations. Cooperating teachers utilize these competencies to rate student teachers on their final performance evaluation.
Student teaching placements vary among programs. The numbers have been tabulated by averaging the scores per item per candidate rather
than on each experience.
 Early Childhood Education candidates complete three student teaching placements at the preschool, kindergarten and primary levels.
 Art Education student teachers complete two nine-week student teaching placements at the elementary and secondary levels.
 Family and Consumer Sciences Education, Marketing and Business Education, Science Education, and Technology Education student
teachers complete two nine-week student teaching placements at the middle school and high school levels.
 Special Education candidates complete a semester long student teaching placement at either the elementary, middle or high school
level depending on their individual licensure needs.

Educational Benchmarking Inventory (EBI) for Exiting Student Teachers
(Ratings are on a 7 point scale with “1” indicating either strong disagreement or being very dissatisfied and “7” indicating either strong
agreement or being very satisfied)
The Educational Benchmarking Inventory (EBI) of exiting student teachers is administered via computer at the end of student teaching for the
purpose of unit assessment. Of the 137 student teachers attempted to survey, 85 surveys were returned. This is an overall response rate of
62%, virtually the same as the 61.5% response rate in 2010/11.

Trend Analysis of All EBI Factors
(Rating Scale “1” disagreement/very dissatisfied –“7” strong agreement/ very satisfied)
The above graph indicates SOE teacher education candidates continue to rate their Fellow Students in the Program and Student Teaching
Experiences as well as Satisfaction with Faculty and Course most highly. Career Services and Management with Educational Contingencies
although increasing, are rated lowest out of all EBI categories over time. While Career Services is rated low, the employment rate remains
very high for UW-Stout Graduates.
