Minnesota Standards of Effective Practice for Teachers
The Minnesota Board of Teaching has mandated
that teacher education programs assess pre-service teachers according to their
actual performance to a set of specific standards. These ten
Minnesota
Standards of Effective Practice for Teachers are based on the national-level
Interstate New Teacher Assessment and Support Consortium (INTASC) Standards. To
be recommended for initial licensure, pre-service teachers must surpass the
completion of courses to satisfactorily demonstrate their knowledge,
dispositions, and skills in each of the ten standards.
Standard 1 differentiates one licensure
field from another; however, listed here it defines subject matter generically
for all teaching fields. Standards Two through Ten are the same for all teaching fields.
Licensure rules specific
to each subject matter area have been approved and may be obtained via the
Internet from the State Legislature: www.revisor.leg.state.mn.us/arule/8710.
