I remember hearing this story on a drive home a few months ago and forgot to post it for the group.
Faye's reminder about NCATE's recommendations for "Transforming Teacher Education Through Clinical Practice: A National Strategy to Prepare Effective Teachers" [pdf available here] was played out in this story.
Louisiana which is one of eight states that NCATE targeted for improvement have repositioned their teacher preparation program to be exclusively grounded within practicum experience.
I've embedded the story for those that would like to listen to the story.
You may also choose to read through the story or investigate this further by reviewing the story on the Marketplace site.
