Proposal Information: (Procedures can be found at )
Course justification: Beginning in August 2004, the standards for educator licensure in Wisconsin as outlined in PI 34 require the individual licensee (administrator, teacher, and pupil service providers) to develop a Professional Development Plan (PDP) during the Initial Educator Licensure Stage. The approval process for the Initial Educator PDP requires review by a 3 member Initial Educator Team comprised of a peer [but not mentor], e.g., a teacher, pupil service or administrator, and a higher education representative. This course will prepare educators in the Wisconsin DPI professional and/or master level licensure cycles to serve as a member of the Initial Educator Team and/or Professional Development Team to approve the plan (initial educator stage) and verify documentation and completion of PDPs for license renewal.
Relationship to program assessment objectives: Candidates in the Graduate Certification Program in Professional Development and specifically the EDUINDP 712 – Serving as a PDP Initial Educator Team Member course will culminate in the educator being prepared to:
• Understand and follow the guiding principles embedded in PI 34 PDP development
• Identify the perform the knowledge, skills, and dispositions of a team member related to PI34
• Develop coaching skills to assist the initial educator in developing goals, writing a PDP, and implementing the plan
• Skillfully give reflective feedback in the process of being a team member
• Discern the difference between written documents (PDP) and the authentic performances from practice
• Use the verification checklist skillfully to approve and verify plans
• Use the proper paperwork for documentation of verification for license requirements.
Budgetary impact: EDUINDP 712 will be funded by extension/outreach tuition revenue (salary, fringe, facility rental, etc.).

-----------------------
Our conceptual framework, The Teacher is a Reflective Facilitator, is the underlying structure in our teacher preparation program at UW-Whitewater. This structure gives conceptual meanings through an articulated rationale to our operation. It also provides direction for our licensure programs, courses, teaching, candidate performance, faculty scholarship and service, and unit accountability. In short, our teacher education program is committed to reflection upon practice; to facilitation of creative learning experiences for pupils; to constructivism in that all learners must take an active role in their own learning; to information and technology literacy; to diversity; and to inquiry (research/scholarship) and assessment. Therefore, all syllabi pertaining to courses required for licensure reflect commitment to these underlying principles.
