Examples of values and moral behavior expected in the teaching profession include respect, trust, honesty, humility, and strong work ethic. In addition to the knowledge you possess and the talents you apply, you will be judged on your growth as a professional. Professional characteristics on which you will be evaluated include punctuality, attendance, cooperation, and participation. Because this course is designed to develop you as a professional teacher, correct values and moral character will be stressed. Therefore, attendance and participation is crucial to your success and that of your classmates. If you are ill or an emergency occurs, contact the instructor prior to the scheduled class time; otherwise, your attendance and participation are firm expectations.Toward this effort, the following professional expectations exist:Come to class every day. Unexcused absences will lower your grade. Pre-arranged absences will only be excused if the instructor deems the reason to be valid.Arrive to class on time and prepared. As prospective professionals you are expected to be punctual and prepared to contribute.Participate in the class by contributing to discussions and other interactive activities.Refrain from using any form of tobacco in the classroom.Remove your hat upon entering the classroom.Professional dress is required for presenters during laboratory exercises (unless indicated differently). For males, this is interpreted to mean a tie, button-up dress shirt and dress trousers (no denim/jeans). For females, this is interpreted to mean a blouse and skirt or dress trousers (no denim/jeans), or a dress.Proofread all written material and keep in mind the long term impact of written and verbal communications. Seek others to proofread materials prior to presentation for subject clarity and absence of errors. Not only will this help your current writing, but it also better prepares you to ask for and take feedback as a professional.Positive leadership and interpersonal relationships are encouraged. Disrespect toward your instructors, fellow students, or resource people will not be tolerated.At times, the instructors will evaluate professionalism subjectively.Student teaching is a cooperative effort between a specific school system and the university, with the school providing the realistic situations for student teachers to apply and synthesize theory and practice. Student teaching is the culminating field experience in the teacher preparation program. The cooperating teacher is the key person in the experience who guides and evaluates the student teacher’s activities on a daily basis. The aim of student teaching is to have the student teacher develop his/her unique style of teaching and to begin to master appropriate teaching skills and behaviors. Developing the necessary professional teaching attitudes and competencies is an important component of the student teaching experience.“Supervising a student teacher is an immense responsibility. Quite possibly the influence you have on the student teacher will help shape the teaching behavior for much of their professional career. It is imperative that when you accept the responsibility to sponsor a student teacher, you also accept the responsibility to carry forth on professional supervision and the modeling of teaching behavior and program management that is inherent in establishing high standards in the Agricultural Education profession.”The university supervisor is involved in defining and communicating the purposes and expectations to be fulfilled by the student teacher and the cooperating teacher. An important role for the university supervisor is to assist in keeping channels of communication open between the cooperating teacher and the student teacher. The student teacher will be evaluated throughout the process by both the cooperating teacher and the university supervisor, using conferences focused on observation and data collection.Structure of the Student Teaching ExperienceThe student teacher will be assigned to the Cooperating Teacher for approximately 5 weeks pre-fall to give exposure to informal teaching (state / county fair and FFA leadership camp), program management and the more formal aspects of starting out the school year. During this pre-fall experience, there will be two formal evaluations of the student teacher by an Oregon State University supervisor. The Student Teacher’s responsibilities are to gain experience with: Supervised Agricultural Experience (SAE) and FFA Programs; pick up 1-2 classes, spend time with the Cooperating Teacher, learning the duties and responsibilities of an Agricultural Science and Technology (AST) instructor in Oregon. They will also complete the ‘Fall’ portion of the Student Teaching Experience Manual. It is important to remember that the Student Teacher has not had a course in Methods of Teaching prior to the fall experience.Fall term the student teacher will be on the OSU campus taking professional coursework. In January, the student teacher will return to the field to continue their Professional Student Teaching. This period is 12 weeks in length. The Student Teacher will be expected to attend the State FFA Convention in March and act as the Assistant Advisor and chaperone for the local FFA Chapter.The Student Teacher is expected to build up to a full load and maintain a full load for a minimum of 75 class periods and work back down to a partial load. The student teacher should teach a minimum of 100 class periods under partial load. Teachers Standards and Practices Commission (TSPC) requires the student teacher have full responsibility for three classes for a nine-week period. This brings a total of 175 class periods for the Winter Experience. Block scheduling (90 minute periods) may count 2 for 1.Aug 24Aug 31 Sep 7Sep 14Sep 21Jan 4Jan 11Jan 18Jan 25Feb 1Feb 8Feb 15Feb 22Feb 29Mar 7Mar 14Mar 20Week12345123456789101112FULL LOAD5-6 XXXXFinalize all materialsState FFA Conv (submit all paperwork)4-X3-X2-XXXX1-XXXXNO LOAD0-X In-Service/Observation State FairEd TPA WeekDuring this teaching time for the Student Teacher, an example topic outline and appropriate curriculum development resources should be made available to carry out the teaching process. Program management techniques and methods of teaching are the primary focus of the student teaching experience. There will be a minimum of four formal evaluations during the Winter/Spring term by an OSU supervisor. The Student Teacher will also be expected to gain exposure and experience with FFA, SAE, Professional Development, the Total Ag Program, and Students with Special Needs. Three to 5 lessons in a connected learning segment will be developed by the Student Teacher for submission to edTPA as part of the certification process. There is a handbook which guides the student teacher through the edTPA process. All student teachers will teach their edTPA learning segment during “edTPA week” (see previous schedule).In conjunction with the 12 student teaching credits, the student teacher will also be enrolled in a Seminar (AED 556 -Linking Research and Teaching) which will require returning to campus for scheduled cohort meetings. These will be announced at the beginning of winter term.Responsibilities of the Student TeacherCarefully study and consider the suggestions and instructions, which are offered in this document. They are based on the observations and experiences of many professionals. The undertaking that you are beginning is without doubt the most important phase of your preparation as a teacher of agriculture.First impressions are important. Be genuinely courteous, cooperative, and sincere in your dealings with students, cooperating teachers, administrators, other faculty members, school employees, parents, and community members. The ability to work well with other people and to maintain desirable relationships is one that every beginning teacher should cultivate. Appearance and conduct should be acceptable for professionals in the Agricultural Education profession.Student teaching is an opportunity for you to learn. Carefully observe not only what is done, but also how it is done in the school to which you are assigned. Be discrete at all times about talking to friends and outsiders about what transpires in the department. The coming and going of student teachers creates disruptions of the regular school program. At the same time, you are added personnel in the school and, as such, you should have additional ideas to present for consideration that can be of value to the educational program. Endeavor to make some permanent, tangible contributions to the department during the student teaching period. Try to leave at least one educational item (teaching aid, etc.) for the department.You will find your cooperating teacher, the school administrator, and other local persons in the school/ community to be cooperative and helpful. It is your responsibility to contribute to the total program.Administrative RelationshipsCheck with your cooperating teacher(s) on the procedures for reporting to the school, housing, lesson assignments, dress code, etc. It may be that you should report to the teachers so they can introduce you to the administration.The administration expects you to become one of the teaching staff. Every teacher has certain obligations in the total program and you must be willing to do your share in this respect. At the same time, you are not assigned to the school to do “odd jobs” or be a floating substitute teacher, which are not required or expected of other teachers.Always remember the well-defined, but visible, channels. Think no more of bypassing your cooperating teacher than you would of going directly to the school board without first going through your administration. The Cooperating Teacher is your immediate supervisor.Professional and Personal ProceduresYou probably will not find all situations as perfect as you think desirable-few of us do. This will call for discretion in everything you do and say.Do not become involved socially with your students – in person or online. Use discretion in social involvement with others.You should never criticize one student to another nor should you criticize your class, other student teachers, your cooperating teacher, your administrator, or your school to others. The only possible exception is in direct communication with your University Supervisor with the intent to improve the situation.Do not hesitate to ask for assistance from the teacher(s). If you do not know how to complete a particular job, be sure to say so. Do not put yourself in an embarrassing predicament by claiming to “know it all.”Do not be afraid to suggest new ideas, but strive to use tact when doing so. If the idea is not adopted or some idea is being used that may be contrary to your past experiences, ask why. Usually there is a very good reason.Do not wait to be told what to do. After general instructions have been given to you, or certain activities planned, proceed to get the job done. Use initiative but be sure to keep your cooperating teacher informed.Personal appearance is important. Be neat and clean. Dress for whatever the occasion requires. Your appearance should be such that would command the respect of students.Demonstrate your willingness to work. Enthusiasm is necessary prerequisite to becoming an effective teacher.Learn all you can during your student teaching. Get all the experience possible in all phases of the job—organization, classroom teaching, filed work, supervising agricultural experience programs, conducting adult and young farmer classes, and FFA activities. The more you experience during student teaching, the less you will face for the first time as a full-time teacher.Take criticism in the spirit in which it is offered. Suggestions will be offered for your professional improvement. Invite suggestions and profit from them. Make positive changes in your teaching as suggested by your supervising teacher.Classroom, Laboratory, and Field WorkFirst contacts are important. Your cooperating teacher will introduce you to each class. Be friendly and sincere, but maintain a professional relationship.Learn the names of students and as much about their agricultural experience programs or plans for a project and home conditions as soon as possible before starting your teaching.Prepare your lesson (teaching) plans carefully and have the plans checked over by the cooperating teacher(s), far enough in advance so you can make any recommended changes. This also applies to tests, field trips, committee meetings, audio-visual materials, etc.Maintain an orderly, business-like classroom atmosphere. You must maintain proper control of your classes. Secure the cooperation of your class but do not be too “easy” or overly friendly. As you gain experience, you can more easily direct and supervise classroom work which allows greater and more desirable student activity and freedom. Gain student respect for doing a good job without being overly concerned about them “liking you.”Endeavor to improve such things as your handwriting, board work, grammar, and spelling. You must set a good example for your students.Do not talk down to the students; or go above their heads. Take into consideration their age and experience. Check often to see that the whole class is following you. Study the work of the cooperating teacher(s); always trying to determine why they did what they did.Teaching in the laboratory also requires careful planning and organization. Have in mind your methods and approach. Secure and organize your material and equipment in advance of the beginning of the class period.On field trips, definitely plan what you want the students to observe or do and follow this up later in class by means of discussion, a quiz, further explanation, or other appropriate activities.Be prompt in meeting all your classes and appointments. It is better to arrive ahead of time than to rush into a room out of breath a split-second ahead of the bell. Be consistent in our methods and relationships. Develop patience and self-control.Demonstrate a professional attitude in all your contacts in the school and community.General InstructionsStudent teachers in agricultural education are expected to devote their time to work and activities in the agriculture department during their student teaching period. “Moonlighting” employment is not allowed as it would detract from the potential benefits of the student teaching experience.Keep the required documents and submit them on time.Keep all required or desirable records (i.e., as mileage, meals, and hotel expenses).Whenever you leave the school for any reason, be sure that you have the consent of your cooperating teacher and the school administrator, if necessary.Put things back in their proper place when you are finished with them.Do not ransack department files and take some of everything. Ask the cooperating teacher to supply copies of the desired materials.Be sure that everything you do is done to the best of your ability.Set aside time at the end of each day for a conference with your cooperating teacher. Do not feel hurt if the cooperating teacher(s) does not have time to visit with you at times. Make a definite appointment at a later time if necessary.The local authorities have granted permission for you to observe and to do student teaching in their school. The continuance of this privilege to those who will follow you depends upon how well you do your work and the manner in which you conduct yourself.Develop an understanding of the ethics of the profession. As an example, you must recognize the confidential nature of personal data and treat it as such.Make arrangements in advance of arrival at the training center for room and board.Report absence, due to any reason, to the cooperating teacher(s) as soon as possible. Inform the university supervisor of any absence of this rm your cooperating teacher of your whereabouts if you leave the community over a weekend or holiday.Attend to all financial matters and any other obligations before leaving the community.Before leaving your school, be sure to express your appreciation to your cooperating teacher(s) and administrators. Follow this up with written expression of appreciation.Be prepared to spend the time necessary to participate in the activities expected of agricultural education teachers. You are expected to take an active role in evening and weekend activities. Remember, student teaching is an opportunity for you to experience the role and responsibility of teaching agricultural education. Plan to be involved in a variety of activities and budget your time and other resources in order to allow for your participation.Responsibilities of the Cooperating Teacher0000The role of a cooperating teacher is one of great importance. Student teaching is regarded as one of the most important phases in a teacher education program. It is quite likely that you will have more to do with the future performance of the student teacher than any other person. There is no doubt that you will greatly influence the professional attitude of the student teacher as well as provide him/her with the opportunity to increase his/her professional knowledge and skill. It is with this challenge in mind that the following suggestions are made. SEQ CHAPTER \h \r 1Initial PlanningAssist student teachers in obtaining adequate housing at as modest a cost as possible.Introduce student teachers to administration and other faculty and employees.Cooperating teacher and student teacher should cooperatively determine policy on such matters as: (a) Daily working hours, (b) Weekends in the community, (c) Responsibilities, (d) Professional dress, (e) Mileage and other expenses, (f) Personal conduct, and (g) Absences.Acquaint student teacher with the school and agriculture department facilities and with the activities and procedures of the school and department. This undoubtedly will be a progressive undertaking, but the student teacher should be familiar with such items if they are to benefit from their experiences in the cooperating school.Students should address the student teacher as "Mr./Ms. " rather than by his/her first name.Plan ahead! Discuss tentative teaching assignments and responsibilities for the entire student teaching experience.Review the student teacher’s expectations, assignments, and projects. Understand that while student teachers, they are both Students and Teachers. SEQ CHAPTER \h \r 1Planning the Experience - Cooperatively plan the student teacher’s activities with emphasis on the following:In cooperation with the student teacher review the Student Teaching Experience Manual and develop a plan to complete the expected outcomes during their experience. Allow freedom to arrange a schedule which will include a majority of the desired outcomes.Make assignments early enough so that the student teacher can prepare and have his/her plans reviewed.Coordinate teaching assignments with existing teaching calendars. If possible, start the student teacher with a course and unit in which they are well qualified.Plan ahead and set up a long-range schedule of teaching assignments and responsibilities for the FFA chapter and other activities which will allow the student teacher to plan his/her work and schedule.Make it a point to have the student teacher visit Supervised Agricultural Experience (SAE) programs with you early in the placement.Supervision of Student TeachersCheck and approve all instructional (lesson) plans prior to each lesson (at least one day in advance to provide time for revision if needed). Conduct evaluations of the student teacher’s classroom, laboratory, and field instruction and offer constructive criticism during a feedback conference. Set aside time each day for a feedback conference with the student teacher.Provide the student teacher with verbal and written evaluations of his/her work. Grade the student teacher periodically throughout their experience.Supervise and evaluate the student teacher’s activities regarding the supervision provided to students’ Supervised Agricultural Experience programs.The cooperating teacher should not "take away" the control and direction of a class, except in an emergency.Observe the ability of the student teacher to work with other people in the school and community. The development of the ability to follow professional procedures and to communicate well with people is as important for the student teacher as is the development of skill in teaching.7. Submit all reports as requested by Oregon State University. The university supervisor needs to become familiar with Taskstream and be able to use it to enter observation scores and comments and to access and complete other evaluations. The supervisor may need to help new cooperating teachers with use of Taskstream.Responsibilities of the University Supervisor0000University SEQ CHAPTER \h \r 1supervisors serve as a liaison between the University and cooperating site. The university supervisor should be contacted immediately when a problem or concern arises. In addition, the university supervisor is charged with the following responsibilities:Work with the cooperating teacher and student teacher in planning and evaluating the student teaching experience.Conduct six observations. Each on-site observation will include a feedback conference to evaluate progress, make constructive recommendations, and provide assistance as needed. Additional site observations will be scheduled if warranted.Conduct a one-on-one conference with the student teacher during seminars held on-campus (if necessary).Assign student teacher’s final grade, taking into consideration the evaluations and recommendation of the cooperating teacher.Serve as a resource person for the student teacher.Site Observation ExpectationsSome observations will be of formal instruction (classroom) and other will be informal (mechanics, facilities, laboratories, etc.) instruction. For each observation, please allow ? hour prior to and 1 hour immediately following for discussion and reflection with your university supervisor.Student TeacherHave instructional (lesson) plans ready for review upon the university supervisor’s arrival.Be prepared to explain the instructional objectives for the lessons/laboratories being taught and how the instructional objectives will be accomplished.Participate in a feedback conference with the cooperating teacher and the university supervisor.Upload lessons to Taskstream to trigger observations from your cooperating teacher and university supervisor.Make sure that you have an updated notebook available for review by your university supervisor. This should includeUpdated “Student Teaching Calendar and Checklist”Complete lesson plan for the class being observedNotebook of lesson plans and edTPA portfolio (Electronic or paper copies)Student Teaching Experience Manual with documented progressCooperating TeacherBe present with the university supervisor in the classroom and/or laboratory to observe the student teacher.Participate in feedback conference with student teacher and university supervisor.Review and make plans for completing the required university paperwork.Use Taskstream to submit all required evaluations.Discuss concerns that might strengthen the student teacher’s preparation program.University SupervisorArrive in time to adequately review instructional plans with student teacher and conduct a pre-conference.Observe teaching with the intent of providing support, encouragement, and recommendations.Provide student teacher with objective feedback on the current state of his/her instructional skills.Analyze the events that occur in the classroom in terms of the objectives for the lesson.Lead student teacher and the cooperating teacher in a feedback conference.Assist the student teacher and cooperating teacher in diagnosing and solving instructional problems.RECORD KEEPING RESPONSIBILITIES:Observations and Evaluations (to be done on Taskstream)Formal Observations (3-way) (beginning and end of winter term)Disposition EvaluationsTSPC/Outcomes Summary Form Evaluating and Grading Teaching PerformanceEvaluation instruments serve as a way to communicate the student teacher’s needs and progress. Selected instruments are used to enhance the student teacher’s growth. These evaluation instruments and experiences help the student teacher in determining personal abilities at the beginning of the student teaching internship and throughout the student teaching experience. Evaluation tools identify difficulties preventing progress, help determine progress, and provide feedback to the student teacher.During the student teaching experience, evaluation and grading will be treated as two separate processes. Evaluation, as stated previously, is an on-going process completed by the student teacher, the cooperating teacher, and the university supervisor.Formative evaluation instruments should be used by the cooperating teacher and university supervisor to evaluate the progress of the student teacher:Weekly Formative Evaluation of Teaching: This form will be completed 12 times during the student teaching experience (preferably two in the fall and 10 in the spring, but there is flexibility). These items are built on TSPC and INTASC standards and all for formative feedback to the student teacher. This form will be completed 12 times in Taskstream. If you prefer, you can use paper copies for making your observation and enter the scores later.Formative Observation of Teaching – This is an optional instrument developed by the Agricultural Education program at Oregon State University. The instrument is based upon TSPC prescribed teaching competencies. In addition, the evaluation utilizes the procedures in teaching using the Problem-Solving Approach to Teaching agriculture subjects, the Principles of Teaching and Learning (Newcomb, McCracken, & Warmbrod, 1993), and the Effective Teaching Characteristics (Rosenshine & Furst, 1971).Teaching Performance Review (Formative Narrative Observation) – This instrument is one of the most widely used evaluation instruments in the formative evaluation of agriculture teachers (Hedges, 1989). This instrument has the advantage over checklist rating systems in that it provides teachers with specific details relating to their teaching performance. This approach allows the observer to emphasize a teacher’s strengths, versus weaknesses during the feedback conference. In the end, teachers view this form of evaluation more positive than rating scales.To use the instrument the observer must construct an image of “ideal teaching” as a basis for evaluation. The “ideal image” of teaching can be constructed from the previous instrument (Formative Observation of Teaching) or by using the Image of Effective Teaching and/or the Principles of Teaching and Learning located on the following pages.Using the Teaching Performance Review: At the top of the instrument record the preliminary information requested. Make sure that as the observer you are clear on the expected outcome (objective) of the lesson to be observed.In the LEFT COLUMN (Things That Worked Well) record the events that occurred during the teaching that helped the teacher reach his/her objective for the lesson. During the observation the observer should keep in mind their image of “ideal teaching” and make comments based on that image. Recorded observations may include quotes of the teacher and/or students, specific incidents, and other details regarding the “ideal teaching” image.In the RIGHT COLUMN (Suggestions / Comments / Questions) record the events that occurred during the teaching that detracted the teacher from reaching the objective(s) of the lesson. In addition, questions to be asked during the feedback conference about the lesson or the teaching should be recorded. The suggestions, comments, and/or questions should pertain to the observer’s constructed image of “ideal teaching.”Performance Based Student Teaching Evaluation (Three way evaluation form) – This instrument is used by the Agricultural Education program at Oregon State University in compliance with TSPC – prescribed teaching competencies. This instrument will be completed in cooperation between the university supervisor and the cooperating teacher. The university supervisor will conduct six formative evaluations throughout the year with two of the evaluations being a three-way conference between the student teacher, the cooperating teacher, and the university supervisor. This will now be completed in TaskstreamStudent Teaching Summary Report – This instrument is a summary of the Performance Based Student Teacher Evaluation and will be completed at the end of the student teaching experience. This instrument will be used for recommendation of licensure. It is located in the ‘submitted materials’ section of this binder. This will now be completed in Taskstream.Feedback ConferenceA feedback (evaluation) conference should be held as soon as possible after a teaching experience. At least one daily informal feedback conference between the student teacher and cooperating teacher is recommended. During the feedback conference, the student teacher should be encouraged to evaluate his/her progress. At the conclusion of the conference recommended procedures for improvement of teaching should be agreed upon by the student teacher and the cooperating teacher.Image of “Effective Teaching”I.Initiating and Maintaining InterestA.The teacher initiated the interest of the students in the lesson by helping them see the importance of the lesson in terms of their needs.B.The teacher maintained the interest of the students in the lesson by appealing to various student desires and values, and varying the types of student participation.II.Stimulating Student ThinkingThe teacher used questions and obtained student participation in the lesson.The teacher’s questions helped the students to think and reason, to make judgments, and to analyze problem situations rather than emphasize memorization.III.Use of Instructional ToolsThe teacher selected appropriate instructional tools (audio-visual equipment, charts, samples, films, reference materials, chalkboard, transparencies, etc.) for the lesson.The teacher effectively used the selected instructional tools.IV.Classroom Management and Interpersonal RelationshipsThere was variety and proper pacing in the classroom activities.The teacher’s verbal and non-verbal expressions reinforced desirable student behaviors.There was evidence of congeniality and rapport between the teacher and student and among students. They accepted the opinions of others, differed courteously, and there was an overall favorable “emotional tone” associated with the teaching-learning situation.The teacher maintained high time-on-task rates and effectively used available lesson time.V.Application and PracticeA.The teacher brought the students to the point where they could practice or apply what was taught.B.Student practice and application were part of the teaching-learning process.Principles of Teaching and LearningWhen the subject matter to be learned possesses meaning, organization and structure that is clear to students, learning proceeds more rapidly and is retained longer.Readiness is a prerequisite for learning. Subject matter and learning experiences must be provided that begin where the learner is.Students must be motivated to learn. Learning activities should be provided that take into account the wants, needs, interest and aspirations of students.Students are motivated through their involvement in setting goals and planning learning activities.Success is a strong motivating force.Students are motivated when they attempt tasks that fall in a range of challenge such that success is perceived to be possible but not certain.When students have knowledge of their learning progress, performance will be superior to what it would have been without such knowledge.Behaviors that are reinforced (rewarded) are more likely to be learned.To be most effective, reward (reinforcement) must follow as immediately as possible the desired behavior and be clearly connected with that behavior by the student.Directed learning is more effective than undirected learning.To maximize learning, students should “inquire into” rather than be “instructed in” the subject matter. Problem-oriented approaches to teaching improve learning.Students learn what they practice.Supervised practice that is more effective occurs from functional educational experience.Summarized from:Newcomb, L.

It was created amid demands across the nation that educators police their own ranks. As a result, one of the statutory responsibilities of TSPC is to maintain professional Standards of Competent and Ethical Performance of Oregon Educators. These Standards can be found in Oregon Administrative Rules, Chapter 584, Division 020. Approximately 200 discipline cases are investigated by the Commission each year.What is a Competent and Ethical Educator? OAR 584-020-0035 and OAR 584-020-0015(1 - 2)(1) The competent educator measures success by the progress of each student toward realization of personal potential as a worthy and effective citizen.

To determine if a course is a slash course examine the OSU course catalog for the term that you took 5XX course. If there is a 4xx course with the same title during the same term, then this is a slash course. Your plan includes training in the conduct of scholarly or professional activities in an ethical manner. This could be a course offered by your degree program, IST 520, RCR training modules, training in research groups, etc. For more information on the requirement, see . Your total number of credits must be at least 45. (Your major may require more credits—check with them.) All work toward this degree will be completed within seven (7) years. This includes transfer credits, all course work, all examinations, and final library copies of thesis, if applicable.Your major professor must be a member of the Graduate Faculty in your major. Your minor professor, if you have a minor, must be a Graduate Faculty member in your minor. The examining committee consists of two Graduate Faculty members from the major, a Graduate Faculty member from the minor (if a minor is listed) and, if a thesis is required, a Graduate Council Representative.

One remote participant is allowed if the request form is filed in advance. Plan Your MeetingBegin organizing your meeting two months in advance. It can be very difficult to find a date when every member of your committee is available! Obtain contact information (email, office phone, cell phone) for each committee member including the Grad Rep. To save you untold time and frustration, also obtain the contact information of the departmental office assistant of each committee member and copy everyone when sending scheduling correspondence. Obtain SchedulesOver the phone have each committee member identify possible dates/times over a one week window that you provide depending upon your needs. Do this step quickly by phone rather than using email. Schedules change fast and email can be slow. Select a date and time that works for all meeting participants.When meeting is set, immediately phone each member to request that they enter the meeting date/time on their calendars.Book Meeting RoomBook a meeting room. Your departmental office can help you with this.Confirm MeetingSend an e-mail to all committee members (and assistants) with the meeting details-time, date, building, room number, and purpose (program committee meeting, oral exam, thesis defense). File a meeting schedule form with the Graduate School. Check if required at: . If needed, file a request at the Graduate School for a remote meeting participant. Reconfirm MeetingForty-eight to 72 hours before the meeting send an e-mail reminder to the committee members (and their assistants) with time, date, building, room number of the meeting and meeting purpose. Critical Step: Ask for and get confirmation that each committee will be able to attend. If even one person does not show up you will have to reschedule the meeting. Housekeeping Notes Arrange for access to the meeting room. (Get building and room keys if necessary) Arrange for audio/visual equipment.Set up remote participation (if needed). Twenty-four hours prior to the meeting reconfirm audio/visual support.Twenty-four hours prior to meeting, test remote connections (if needed). If the connection does not work at the time of your meeting you will have to reschedule the meeting. Day of Meeting Determine that audio visual equipment is working.If needed, set up and test equipment of remote participation.Good luck!*Two hours for examination, up to 30 minutes for committee deliberation Note: For the exact regulations and forms needed please contact the Graduate School (phone 541-737-4881) or see the Graduate Catalog (). Also check with your department to determine if it has established additional meeting requirements. MS in Agricultural Education Program Oregon State UniversityFinal Evaluation Procedures For Portfolio and Oral Examination Form CEligibilityIn order to eligible to submit your portfolio and take your final oral examination, the following items must be verified:All course work must be satisfactorily completed. Students must maintain an overall GPA of 3.00 for graduation.Your MS program of study must be approved and on file in the Graduate School.Any changes in the program of study must be approved and on file in the Graduate School.All incomplete grades must be officially removed and on record in the Registrar’s Office.Portfolio ExpectationsThe portfolio is an indication of the quality of work completed by the prospective teacher. The various components of the portfolio will serve as a reflection of the individual’s knowledge of subject matter, pedagogy, secondary school students, curriculum, and research. The purpose of the portfolio is to help you integrate what you have learned and to display your work in a manner that best represents your abilities as an Agricultural Science and Technology teacher. Furthermore, the portfolio presents your work to your graduate committee and potential employers.Portfolios are to be written at a level of quality that is consistent with Graduate School Standards. The content of the portfolio will include revised papers and projects completed as part of your course work. It will also include pictures of your teaching, and materials documenting course activities in Agricultural Science and Technology education. It is important that you demonstrate professional consistency between your theoretical knowledge and your practical application of this piling the portfolio is a significant undertaking. It is THE evidence of your professional growth. Consequently, you should allow ample time for its development. Confer with your major professor periodically throughout the program about developing your portfolio and preparing for the final oral examination.A complete draft of the portfolio must be submitted to your major professor for review two (2) weeks prior to your oral examination. A copy of the written portion of the portfolio that has been approved by your major professor must be given to each member of your committee one (1) week prior to the oral exam. Committee members may require the student to make revisions prior to and/or subsequent to the oral examination.A completed final copy of the written portion of your portfolio and a final copy of your electronic portfolio must be submitted to the Department before graduation. These documents will be kept on file in the department for program evaluation by TSPC (written portions for one year, electronic versions for seven years).Expectations for the Oral Examination (see the Graduate School website for additional information on the oral exam process)All students qualifying for the MS degree must pass a final oral examination. The examination is scheduled for a two-hour block of time. It is your responsibility to schedule all aspects of the examination.The examination will be conducted by your major professor and the other two committee members. You are required to have your major professor and one subject matter specialist (i.e. Agricultural Education) on your committee. The third member can be any qualified, graduate school approved committee member (which could also be from Ag Ed). They must have been approved by Graduate School and on file in the department. Check with the Ag Ed office to be sure they are approved. Please note that serving on a committee is not a faculty requirement, so make sure your committee is appreciated for their time and efforts.During the examination, you will be asked to provide evidence of your skills and abilities as an Agricultural Science and Technology instructor. You will be provided 10-15 minutes to present on what you feel are elements of effective teaching. The remainder of the exam time will be open to questions from the various committee members on topics ranging from specific aspects of the portfolio and opening discussion to your subject matter course work, your Agricultural Science and Technology education course work and other projects in progress. The role of the committee is to appraise your competence as an Agricultural Science and Technology teacher in terms of your integration of knowledge, and application of subject matter knowledge, to pedagogical practices that are developmentally appropriate in public education, as well as your ability to evaluate your own teaching effectiveness.Scheduling ProceduresTo schedule your oral examination, please follow the procedure outline below. It is advisable to begin this process at least one month prior to the anticipated date of the examination. Review Graduate School Deadlines to determine filing dates, etc.: . Normally, in order to participate in Commencement and graduate in spring term, students must complete their oral defense by the third week of May. Check with the Graduate School for specific dates.Schedule the date and time with each of your committee members.Schedule a location.Make a formal application to the Graduate School via their online application process at: - date, time, and place of your exam, confirm the committee membership and notify the committee of the exam date, time, and place (you are M.S. non thesis). This must be done at least one (1) week in advance of the examination date.Apply to graduate through your Student Online Services account. This should be submitted at the same time you apply to do your final examination.If you have any questions or problems with the process of preparing for your oral examination, please do not hesitate to contact your major professor. Any exceptions to the process or requirements must be negotiated with your major professor.The ExamOn exam day, the process will go like this:The student is at the front of the room and the committee will be around the table or will be facing the candidate. The major professor runs the meeting:Candidate is asked to tell the committee about your self – make it concise, but don’t leave out important details. The committee is interested in your background, but is most interested in hearing how you got to this point – your student teaching experience and why you are interested in teaching. Similar to the question that will be asked in a job interviewPresent your teaching presentationEach committee member will ask approximately 20 minutes worth of questions. When all committee members are finished, each member will have an opportunity for follow-up questionsAt the end of your defense (approximately 2 hours), the candidate will be excused from the room while the committee deliberates the outcome of the defenseYour major professor will then come out to get you and provide you with the final results.Sign the examination form, copy, and deliver form to graduate school.Documentation of ExperienceSome of these items will be submitted in paper copy and some of these items will be submitted in Taskstream. Paper copies have been included for all required paperwork to permit the student teaching experience to continue, even if access issues to Taskstream occur. All required paperwork will need to be submitted in the correct format during the required grading periods.3981450228600Rigor/RelevanceFrameworkKnowledge654321CAssimilation_______DAdaptation_______AAcquisition_______BApplication_______ 1 2 3 4 5Application400000Rigor/RelevanceFrameworkKnowledge654321CAssimilation_______DAdaptation_______AAcquisition_______BApplication_______ 1 2 3 4 5ApplicationOregon State University – Agricultural Education Lesson Plan TemplateLesson Title: Area and/or Course:Length of Time: Essential Question(s): 1.2.

Guidelines for Context StatementAll information provided in this section regarding the school, personnel, families, and students must be kept anonymous so that no individual can be identified from the student’s descriptive information. Use pseudonyms for the school, community, and all individuals. The context statement paints a picture of the setting in which you are teaching. It should include all of the following information: Community Description: _____ Actual data on the physical setting of the community _____ Actual data on the economic basis of the community _____ Actual data on the social demographics of the community (size of population, racial/ethnic composition) _____ Description of special cultural or natural features of the community School Description: _____ Description of the physical setting of the school _____ Description of the size and layout of the school (Are different grades housed in different wings? Is there a central meeting place? Etc.) _____ Description of the resources available in the school (computer labs, gymnasium, counseling office, etc.) _____ Description of the behavior management policy of the school _____ Actual data on the social demographics of the school (number of students in each grade, M/F, TAG, IEP, etc.) _____ Actual data on the racial/ethnic demographics of the school (number of ELL, languages spoken, etc.) _____ Actual data on the economic demographics of the school (number of free/reduced lunches, SES, etc.) _____ Actual data on the academic history of the school (test scores, AYP, etc.) Classroom Description: _____ Description of the size and layout of the classroom _____ Description of the resources available in the classroom (computers, sinks, etc.) _____ Actual data on the social demographics of the classroom (number of students, M/F, TAG, IEP, etc.) _____ Actual data on the racial/ethnic demographics of the classroom (number of ELL, languages spoken, etc.) _____ Actual data on the economic demographics of the classroom (number of free/reduced lunches, SES, etc.) _____ Actual data on the economic demographics of the classroom (number of free/reduced lunches, SES, etc.) Reflection GuidelinesCritical reflection is an important aspect of both teaching and learning. Educational philosopher and theorist John Dewey (1933) recognized that it is the reflection on our experiences that leads to learning – not merely the experience itself. We learn from those experiences that we ponder, explore, review, and question. Today researchers are looking at the developmental or evolutionary aspects of critical reflection in teaching. Still, it is reflection, not experience alone, that is found to be of value to the teacher (Garmeston, 2001). It is the reflective process that provides the greatest opportunities for professional understanding and self-assessment.Becoming a reflective practitioner is a goal of our Teacher Preparation Program at Oregon State University. Reflection has many definitions in the context of teacher cognition. Reflection involves “a state of doubt, hesitation, perplexity, or mental difficulty, in which thinking originates.” This uncertainty is followed by the act of searching to find materials that will resolve this doubt and settle the perplexity (Dewey, 1933).Reflection, however, is more that “just thinking hard about what you do” (Bullough and Gitlin, 1995). Reflective practitioners give careful attention to their experiences and how meaning is made and justified. They analyze the influence of context and how they shape human behavior. Reflection is about change. Reflection is inquiry into pedagogy and curriculum, the underlying assumptions and consequences of these actions (Liston & Zeichner, 1987).Becoming reflective requires active engagement in and consciousness of the experience, and in this case, the act of narrative writing. Reflection requires the ability to analyze and prioritize issues, to use tacit and resource-based knowledge, and to develop a feasible plan of action. Clarke (1995) suggests that reflection is not about a single event in time, but occurs over time as teachers begin to construct meaning for them. What reflection is NOT:Many beginning teachers have the tendency to merely recount events that occurred rather than analyzing the meaning and possible ramifications of those events. In your written reflections, you should include only as much description of events as is necessary to provide a context for analysis or evidence of claims that you are making.What to include in your lesson reflections:Each lesson reflection will have a different focus, depending on the events that unfold. The following are suggestions of questions to consider in your reflections. Please separate your reflection into these three sections.Analysis of the LessonThis is not a blow by blow description of the lesson. Rather you should provide specific evidence to support claims that you are making about the lesson itself:Was the timing appropriate?Did the activities align with your objectives?What were the particular benefits and drawbacks of the methods you chose?Would a different method have been better (i.e., a lab rather than a demonstration)?Did you have enough questions?Were the questions at the appropriate level?What would you do differently and why? Clarify both how you would do this lesson differently but also on changes that you will be making in future lessons.Evidence of student learningAs you are teaching your lesson, you will be constantly assessing the students’ progress. Your reflection is the opportunity to summarize and analyze what you were considering about students during the lessons. Some examples of questions you might consider are:Do you have specific concerns about their progress?Were the students engaged and motivated?What happened in the lesson that seemed to motivate students to be engaged in the lesson?Which students were actively engaged and which ones had disengaged?What can you do to engage the students more, and to more appropriately meet student needs?What do your students understand as a result of your lesson? What evidence do you have for this claim?Reflect on the student learning, identifying specific situations and your reaction to those situations. Choose two or three students (including both males and females) to focus on for each lesson and then reflect more deeply on their progress in the class and in the lesson. In your reflection describe your developing perception on these students as learners in the class and what kinds of strategies work for them in particular.Implications for Future LessonsThis section describes how you use your learning from this lesson to rethink or revise future lessons.Consider alternatives:Are there other ways you might consider structuring this lesson in the future?Are there other strategies or resources that you could have used to support student learning?What evidence suggested this change?Based on your observations of students’ participation in class and written work;What will you do next?Did things come up that will change what you do tomorrow or later in the unit?Are there topics on which you need to spend more (or less) time?What else has today’s lesson made you think about regarding your teaching? Reflections Scoring Guide:A –Reflections demonstrate analytic thinking, self-awareness, and an honest self-evaluation of teaching. Claims about teaching and learning are clearly supported by evidence.B – Reflections attempt an honest self-evaluation of teaching but may be lacking in depth. Provides some evidence for claims made about teaching and learning.C –Reflections do not demonstrate self-awareness or an honest self-evaluation of teaching. Lacks evidence for claims about teaching and learning.TaskstreamOSU’s College of Education has made the investment in the Taskstream reporting system. This will mean almost all of the paperwork submitted around student teacher supervision will be handled electronically. As this is only the second year we have used the system, there will be a learning curve. We are asking everyone’s patience as we work with this new system.Items that will be handled through Taskstream include:Verification of Occupational Experience forms (scanned and submitted by the student teachers)6 - biweekly formative evaluations by the cooperating teacher6 - formal observations by the University Supervisor when OSU observes you2 - three way evaluations (with student teacher, cooperating teacher and university supervisor)edTPA portfolioStudent Teaching Summary ReportLicensure request from the studentTaskstream access for students:1.

Create your password and enter your information:Make sure you put in your OSU ONID address Once you have completed the form, you can hit “submit and send” OR you can “save” and submit later if you are not done; There will be a fee of $42 when you register on Taskstream and you will need a debit or credit card.Remember your user name is your ONID email. Within the system, you are known as an ‘author’SELF-ENROLLMENT CODE: Agriculture15-16 There will be a separate Taskstream enrollment code for your edTPA submission site and that will be provided later in the program.Taskstream access for Cooperating teachers: Go to and log in using your email and the password provided by an email from the Taskstream. Once you have been entered into the system by OSU, you will receive an email with instructions from Taskstream. Save this email for future use. We are timing this email to coincide with the webinar.Once you log on you can change your password.There is no fee for cooperating teachers. Within the system, you are called ‘Evaluator’Other tips! means “nothing to submit”A padlock means it is “locked and nothing needed”Most of Taskstream is student driven. Students upload their scores, lesson plans or forms and then choose the evaluator. Students will use the following chart to choose an evaluator.How to choose who evaluates a document?

Your CT or Supervisor cannot fill out this form until you have attached your lesson for evaluation.Attach your lesson plan to Taskstream before each formal observation from your Cooperating Teacher and each observation from supervisor. Be sure to click submit. Your CT and/or supervisor will then complete the observation form and click submit. You will then have access to your scores and comments. Do this for every observation. Three Way Evaluations (beginning and end of winter term):To prepare for this conference you must first log on to Taskstream and select Three-Way Conference. Then you must score yourself on each area and submit for evaluation. Your CT and supervisor will not be able to complete their portion of the form until you have completed this step and submitted it for evaluation.Ask your CT, (email a reminder) to also fill in the evaluation before the supervisor arrives at the meeting.On the day of the conference, the supervisor will sit with both of you for a conference to discuss the scores, he/she will then enter his/her scores. The instructor for AED 556 will then reconcile the three sets of scores entered by you, your CT and your University Supervisor.Other:Feel free to use the, create a portfolio, option to create a portfolio of all your work submitted on Taskstream. This portfolio, once created, will have a website address that can be shared in interviews and with employers.You will have free access to this site (without the ability to change it) OR to update and maintain the site you can renew for $12 a year.Student Teaching Experience Manual This section consists of appropriate participation experiences for student teachers in Agricultural Science and Technology. Experiences listed have been selected to reflect that which teachers do in conducting a high school program. The list is comprehensive, but not all-inclusive. Student Teachers are urged to become familiar with this manual. Look at it frequently and let it serve to help in planning your participation experiences. At the completion of your experiences, if some experiences have not been available, the cooperating teacher can initial in lieu of a date. In order to be comprehensive the number of activities listed in the manual is lengthy. Credit will not be granted until this report is turned in to your university supervisor.

This year, you will use two different technologies to complete those assignments. First, you will keep your time log in Task Stream. Those entries can be done daily or once a week, but must be posted no later than Sunday evening each week while at your student teaching site. These time logs are critical. Secondly, the weekly journals will now be submitted as blogs. You can use any public blogging platform you wish (Blogger, WordPress, etc.) but directions are included below for Blogger.Setting up a BLOG in BLOGGER:Go to and click on “New Blog”. (If you do not have an account, you may have to create one first).Give your blog a title, an address, and choose a template and Click “Create BLOG”. You can always go back and customize the layout, and you can change the address under settings later. HINT: Do not put Spaces in the address.Once you have completed the creation process, Dashboard should open. From this Dashboard, you can manage everything about your blog. You are ready to start blogging! Weekly blog posts are due by Sunday evening at 9pm – including reflections day-by day and activities that happen over the weekend. You can post these daily or all under one weekly heading but separated by days. These are intended to be reflective and not just a recap of what you did. (Think about answering questions such as: What did you learn? What went well? What was unexpected? What you would do differently?)Post your first blog by giving the post a title and typing away. When you publish, others can see it. Under settings, you can manage the privacy of your blog. Assume that someone COULD find your blog and avoid student and/or school names that would allow someone to identify the setting.Share the link to your blog with Dr. Lambert via email Misty.Lambert@oregonstate.edu**On the next page you can see the old word format if that helps guide your thoughts, but this form will not be used.
