Introduction

Thirteen Hawaii state approved Educator Preparation Programs (EPPs) share the responsibility for preparing candidates who meet the Teacher Performance Standards set by the Hawaii Teacher Standards Board (HTSB). Within these EPPs, there are seven programs with traditional routes to licensure and eight programs with alternate routes to licensure. Teacher candidates can choose one of the following pathways: traditional undergraduate program; traditional or alternative post-baccalaureate; or traditional or alternative master's program. The HTSB has approved 124 different licensure fields.

The HTSB is responsible for conducting the State Approval of Teacher Education (SATE) reviews. In New Business Item (NBI) 17-05 the HTSB made a revision to Educator Preparation Program requirements for approval since there is currently no dedicated educator preparation accrediting body recognized by the US Department of Education. The following options were adopted:

1. Obtain accreditation from a national accrediting body prior to the expiration of their provisional approval and/or to be eligible for continued state approval. The accrediting body must be approved in advance by the HTSB for use in continuing state approval; or

2. Indigenous and culturally focused units may obtain accreditation from a national or international Indigenous focused accrediting body prior to the expiration of their provisional approval and/or to be eligible for continued state approval. The accrediting body must be approved in advance by the HTSB for use in continuing state approval; or

3. All program completers recommended for licensure by the Unit shall submit official scores from a nationally normed performance assessment adopted by the HTSB. The Unit will be reviewed by a State Team; or

4. All program completers recommended for licensure by the Unit are evaluated using unitwide assessments. The unit will be reviewed by a State review by a team.

In NBI 11-51 Rev. the Hawaii Teacher Standards Board approved the consolidation of the annual EPPs report and the Title II report to streamline the reporting process and avoid duplication of effort. Each Hawaii SATEP is required to submit this consolidated report between April 1 and May 1 of each year.

All data provided in this report is dated from July 1, 2015, and June 30, 2016, and does not reflect policy that HTSB approved after that time period.

EPP Highlights

Brigham Young University Changes were made to the Alternative Licensure Program in that an applicant who fails to pass the PRAXIS Content test at least two times, may be accepted as a candidate based on a written recommendation from the school principal and submitting a transcript with a minimum of thirty semester hours in the content field for a bachelor's degree awarded by an accredited institution of higher education or submitting an official transcript from a regionally accredited institution showing a major in the license field.

Chaminade University of Honolulu -Behavioral Science The Master of Science in Counseling Psychology (MSCP) program is seeking national counseling accreditation through MPCAC (Master in Psychology and Counseling Accreditation Council). The MPCAC standards will better fit the mission and vision of the program versus having to adapt teacher performance standards to the school counseling profession.

Chaminade University of Honolulu- Education While not a significant departure in the content of the Chaminade Masters of Arts in Teaching (MAT) programs, the faculty have worked this year to redesign and update all five of their MAT programs and courses to provide their students with a more fully integrated, state of the art educational experience. The program redesign resulted in a reduction in the number of courses that are required for completion across all five programs.

Hawaii Pacific University The School of Education (SOE) was granted an extension of state approval through June 30, 2021.This will allow HPU to review the Council for Accreditation of Educator Preparation (CAEP) revised review process announced in December 2016.

After Program completion, the SOE still has an open-door policy to help candidates that just graduated look for a full-time position at a local school.

Kaho`iwai Kaho`iwai will be reviewed by the World Indigenous Nations Higher Education Consortium (WINHEC) accreditation this year. The WINHEC Accreditation Authority will support the diversity which exists in these programs and will honor the Hawaiian language and culture.

Kahuawaiola Indigenous Teacher Education Program Progress has been made in preparing for the unit accreditation visit with WINHEC. Due to the unique nature of Kahuawaiola, i.e., as a Hawaiian language medium teacher education program, a modification of HTSB requirement for national accreditation was approved to develop a WINHEC accreditation process including a distinctive review process that honors and supports the Hawaiian language and culture. Work has begun on formation of WINHEC accreditation handbook.

Leeward Community College Leeward Community College is deciding whether to continue to move forward with edTPA, CAEP or a State designed Teacher Assessment.

Teach for America (TFA) TFA faculty continued recurring check-ins with university partners to determine extent of alignment and/or supplemental nature of work candidates receive by completing postbaccalaureate university coursework, professional development (provided by TFA or the Hawaii Department of Education), and key assessments. They continue to work towards increased alignment of coursework and credentialing program outcomes. Given the overlapping nature, the planning portfolio key assessment is now completed in Effective Practices 1 through Johns Hopkins University or planning course through Chaminade University.

University of Hawaii ? Hilo The Hawaii Teacher Standards Board granted full continuing state approval to the University of Hawaii at Hilo's School of Education Educator Preparation Program effective January 1, 2016 through June 30, 2022.

University of Hawaii -Manoa In Fall 2018, the College of Education will offer a new Minor in Education to undergraduate students in any field. The 15-credit minor consists of three core and two elective courses in education. The minor also will include HIDOE Substitute Teacher Training at the end of the program.

Secondary Education completed a redesign of the bachelor and post-baccalaureate programs that will begin Spring 2018. The new program will be offered in a cohort model with integration across all courses to create a learning experience that supports both interdisciplinary and content specific learning communities.

University of Hawaii -West Oahu UH-WO entered into a Memorandum of Agreement with the Hawaii Department of Education, which is providing a $100,000 grant for purposes of recruiting and retaining highly qualified special education teachers.

University of Phoenix The Teacher Education Elementary and Secondary programs are under curriculum revision to evaluate and update state and national standards, trends in education, and Hawaii state standards. Additional emphasis is placed on Hawaii culture with the Hawaiian Culture Workshop.
