    Introduction: Teacher Graduate Assessment

    Project Overview

    The Teacher Graduate Assessment project is an assessment of teachers in their first year of

    teaching directly following graduation from one of the twelve public colleges of education in the

    state of Illinois. For the 2015 assessment, two private colleges—Roosevelt University and

    Loyola University Chicago—participated in the assessment. The project is a cooperative effort

    of the Illinois Association of Deans of Public Colleges of Education (IADPCE)

    By surveying first-year teachers and their supervisors, information is generated that can be used

    for teacher education program improvement and that is responsive to broader state education

    needs. Specifically, the project aims to:

    1. Provide a standardized assessment of new teacher graduates of all public colleges in Illinois.

    2. Provide a specific examination of teacher skills related to the Illinois Professional Teaching Standards and the Illinois Learning Standards for the purpose of identifying

    areas of improvement for teacher preparation programs and for ongoing new teacher

    professional development needs.

    3. Provide institutions with institution-specific data on student learning in teacher education programs that will assist with program improvement efforts.

    4. Proactively respond to calls for accountability related to teacher preparation by gathering information that can inform policy makers and the public about teacher preparation

    programs in Illinois and new teacher practice in the first year of teaching.

    In March 2004, an advisory committee named by the project partners was created to oversee the

    development of survey instruments, administration protocol, and data reporting. This advisory

    committee has continued to meet in order to review each year’s survey results and to modify the

    survey as needed. The process for survey development and modification is guided by project

    staff operating under the direction of the Dean of the College of Education and Professional

    Studies at Eastern Illinois University.

    Illinois State Board of Education, Teacher Data Warehouse, which combines college institutional

    graduation data with the State of Illinois’s Employment Information System Record database to

    identify the survey population. Identified graduates and their supervisors (typically, school

    principals) are surveyed each spring as they near completion of their first full year of teaching.

    Survey results are reported relative to the degree that new teachers from colleges of education in

    Illinois are prepared to address the Illinois Professional Teaching Standards and the Illinois

    Learning Standards. First-year teachers also provide open-ended, written feedback about key

    teacher preparation program elements. Reporting takes the form of institution-specific and state

    aggregate data reports.

    The success of this project rests not just in the ability to collect valid data on new teachers, but

    also in the ability of the partners to use data to improve teacher education in Illinois. The

    creation of an ongoing assessment project produces reliable data for program improvement and

    state policy consideration and is an important step in the ongoing P-16 collaboration efforts in

    Illinois.

    Project History

    The assessment of new teacher graduates from colleges of education in Illinois is housed at

    Eastern Illinois University and is conducted under the guidance of the deans of the public

    colleges of education and an advisory committee made up of the deans’ designees. The project

    started in March 2004 with the financial support of the Illinois Board of Higher Education, the

    Illinois State Board of Education, and the twelve participating public institutions of higher

    education: Chicago State University, Eastern Illinois University, Governors State University,

    Illinois State University, Northeastern Illinois University, Northern Illinois University, Southern

    Illinois University-Carbondale, Southern Illinois University-Edwardsville, University of Illinois

    at Chicago, University of Illinois at Springfield, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, and

    Western Illinois University. For the 2015 assessment, two private institutions—Roosevelt

    University and Loyola University Chicago —participated in and financially supported the

    project.

    The assessment effort has been created with the primary purpose of providing information that

    can help facilitate program improvement at each participating institution. The secondary

    purpose is to be responsive to calls for educational accountability while facilitating information

    gathering for the purpose of making informed judgments about programs. The primary

    assessment questions examined in project development to date include:

    1. How are teacher education programs performing in the preparation of students related to understanding and using key educational standards in Illinois?

    2. What is the usefulness or value of instructional, pre-student teaching, and student teaching experiences from the perspective of recent graduates?

    The survey instrument has evolved in response to the program improvement purpose of the

    evaluation and the guidance of the key assessment questions. The survey development process

    has involved input by project partners via group meetings and e-mail communications. In May

    2004, nineteen individuals representing thirteen project partners met in Champaign, IL to kick

    off the project. The outcome of this first gathering was an initial survey draft that addressed key

    content areas. Survey drafts were modified through the rest of 2004 until a first project version

    was established for a pilot administration in January 2005. Following the pilot administration,

    minor modifications to survey instruments were completed and in March 2005, the first

    administration of the survey was completed with graduates from the twelve public colleges of

    education. The current version of the survey instruments is a result of revisions to the survey

    following the 2005 and 2006 administrations.

    Survey Administration Method

    Survey administration for the 2015 Teacher Graduate Assessment began during the week of

    September 26, 2016, when invitation letters were mailed to the 2013-2014 teacher education

    graduates of the fourteen participating institutions. Invitation letters were also mailed to the

    supervising principals of these new teachers. Reminder flyers were mailed to participants during

    the weeks of October 10, October 24, and November 1, 2016. Collection of survey responses

    through the project’s website ended on November 4, 2016.

    Although all flyers and packets were sent from the project office at Eastern Illinois University,

    each piece of correspondence was customized to the graduating institution of each identified new

    teacher. For example, a teacher who had graduated from Northern Illinois University would

    receive a participation invitation printed on NIU letterhead.
