Dean Don Cardinal 2011-2012 DEAN’S MESSAGE FOR YEARBOOK

I

n this year’s yearbook, you will see and read about the accomplishments of our faculty and students. In lieu of a traditional Dean’s Message, it seemed appropriate that this year you hear directly from those who support us all in making our accomplishments possible, our CES Administrative Support Team (AST). At the beginning of the year I asked them to answer two questions, “how do we know if we are good and how do we use that information to be better?” Below is their response and highlights from our accomplishments. as we provide our friends and colleagues a “Snapshot of the CES.”

Throughout 2010-2011, our faculty, staff and students focused on many initiatives. Our largest effort this year supported our internal program improvement system (PISCES). PISCES guided us forward in obtaining two external accreditations: the first in receiving our fourth national accreditation by the Teacher Education Accreditation Commission (TEAC) and the second by the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing (CCTC).

Curricular initiatives also reflected PISCES review in driving program and college decisions. Most of these initiatives will be unveiled during the 2011-2012 academic year and begin in the Fall 2012 semester. They include: • The Master of Arts in Leadership Development (MLD) begins a new era in the college replacing the Master of Arts in Education degree, as part of a new CES leadership and civic engagement initiative.

• The Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) will now be available to students from the school counseling and school psychology programs enabling them to pursue licensure in California.

• The Master of Arts in Teaching: Music Education emphasis will be established.

• The Ph.D. in Education program is developing a fourth emphasis in leadership studies, in addition to the three current emphases in cultural and curricular studies, disability studies and school psychology.

• And finally, the undergraduate Integrated Educational Studies (IES) program has initiated the first steps in developing a new bridge program (4 + 1) as a Master of Arts in Integrated Educational Studies for students who wish to be educators, teachers, leaders and social entrepreneurs within all aspects of our communities..

Dr. Joel Colbert Ph.D. Director

Dr. Michael Madrid Education Director

Dr. Dianne Ferguson PISCES/Accreditation Director

Although difficult to measure our CES successes, it is evident that the long history and valued reputation of the College of Educational Studies is evident in all of our programs, their faculty, and most importantly our graduates. We hope to continue to move forward in “Changing Education, Changing the World.”

Dr. Suzanne SooHoo Kathy Arballo Margie McCoy Hashinger Chair Operations Administrator Assistant to the Dean

National Accreditation

This is the fourth national accreditation for the College of Educational Studies. Chapman University is accredited by and is a member of the Western Association of Schools and Colleges.

The College of Educational Studies at Chapman University is the first institution in the State of California to be a candidate and receive national accreditation by the Teacher Education Accreditation Council (TEAC) in Washington, DC. After a rigorous review, the university and college met all standards related to student achievement of teacher education and received a full five-year accreditation in February 2011.

Don Cardinal, Dean of the CES, notes that, “this recognition affirms that Chapman University continues to offer professional preparation programs that satisfy the very highest national standards.�

The Teacher Accreditation Council is dedicated to supporting educator preparation programs committed to quality. TEAC and the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE) are now in the formal process of becoming the joint Council for the Accreditation of Educator Preparation (CAEP).

Dr. Keith Howard Inaugural Director of DFAATL

r. Keith Howard will serve as the Inaugural Director of the Donna Ford Attallah Academy for Teaching and Learning. Dr. Howard came to Chapman in 2008 and currently serves as the coordinator for the secondary teaching program. He is a former math and computer teacher for the Los Angeles Unified School District. He earned his Ph.D. in Education from the University of Southern California and subsequently worked as a Senior Research Associate in the National Center for Research on Evaluation, Standards, and Student Testing (CRESST) at UCLA. At CRESST he has served as the co-lead of professional development for an Institute of Educational Sciences funded research study examining middle school mathematics achievement. He has conducted professional development for elementary and middle school teachers on various topics including metacognition, motivation, schema-based instruction, and working memory implications for academic performance.

Dr. Howard welcomes the task of directing the academy: “I am excited by this opportunity to make a difference in the lives of young people. Establishing and maintaining purposeful relationships with schools allows us, through meaningful engagement, to improve education for K-12 students and better prepare our future teachers for the classroom. The DFA Academy provides an incredible opportunity to change education for the better.”

Donna Ford Attallah ’61 Board of Trustee

The Donna Ford Attallah Academy for Teaching and Learning was created to help make a difference in K-12 education through teacher development and civic engagement. The academy was established as a result of a $3 million gift from its namesake, Donna Ford Attallah, a Chapman Alumna who taught kindergarten and first grade for 40 years in Orange County. The academy aims to study and influence education in the larger social context. Through meaningful engagement with individuals and institutions, the academy will seek solutions to challenges faced by K-12 educators, with the goal of creating a more inclusive and democratic society.
