College of Education Internship Philosophy

The philosophy of education embraced by the Graduate Education Program at Oral Roberts University is concerned with how theory is applied and tested in practice and how practice improves theory. The internship embodies that philosophy and is specifically structured to permit interns to integrate theory and practice in a field-based setting under the guidance of an experienced cooperating administrator (mentor). The internship program, as developed by the Graduate School of Education, will provide the intern with a variety of meaningful leadership experiences in actual school based settings. The experience will be coordinated by the director of graduate internships in consultation with the cooperating administrator (mentor).

Theoretical Framework

The practical knowledge and skills gained from the actual administrative leadership field experience of the university supervisors and cooperating administrators (mentors) serves as the basic foundation for the theoretical framework for the Internship in Executive School Leadership. Woven into that framework are the recommendations from the learned societies, professional organizations, and the scholarly literature. For information on the College of Education’s conceptual framework please see appendix A.

CAEP Accreditation, NELP Standards & PASL

The Council for the Accreditation of Educator Preparation (CAEP) accreditation process has two primary components: Educator Preparation Program (EPP) Review and Program Review. Educator Preparation Program Reviews use Advanced Level Standards, developed by CAEP, to make accreditation decisions for an EPP (the ORU School of Education). Program Reviews use Program Standards, developed by a Specialized Professional Association (SPA), to determine if a Program (a specific discipline area) can demonstrate mastery of the SPA standards. Programs must receive SPA recognition in order for the EPP to receive CAEP accreditation.

The National Educational Leadership Preparation (NELP) standards are aligned to the Professional Standards for Educational Leaders (PSEL). They provide specific performance expectations for what novice building and district level leaders should know and be able to do once they graduate. The NELP standards focus on the knowledge, skills, and attributes required by administrator candidates to lead and manage educational organizations centered on teaching and learning. It is important for all administrative candidates to be able to accomplish the tasks associated with each of the NELP standards and elements.

The Performance Assessment for School Leaders (PASL) is aligned to the NELP standards. Each of the PASL tasks and steps have several corresponding NELP standard components. These tasks are structured in a way for the intern to experience and develop the knowledge s/he needs to be a successful administrator at the building or district level.

Performance Assessment for School Leaders (PASL) Overview Requirements

The Performance Assessment for School Leaders (PASL) requires you to complete 3 tasks. The 3 tasks require you to submit 19 artifacts, one 15-minute video and answer 70 questions in 22.5 pages or less (at the time of printing).

Each of the 3 tasks requires you to work closely with the director of graduate internships, your cooperating administrator and other school faculty. Improved student learning is the goal of good teaching and PASL, therefore each task requires that you submit a sample of student work as evidence of the impact. Please see appendix E for the complete set of PASL links. Please review the PASL Candidate and Educator Handbook as a starting point.

Each task is designed to assess your ability to implement a best practice methodology in school improvement. Here is a very brief description of what you will be required to do for each task:

Task 1: You will work with your cooperating administrator to identify a problem or challenge, research the issue and develop a plan that will affect instructional practice and student achievement.

Task 2: You will work with your cooperating administrator and a team of colleagues to develop a list of significant professional development needs. Once the group decides on the priority area for professional development you will facilitate the professional development and analyze its effectiveness with walk-through observations and a feedback survey.

Task 3: You will work with your cooperating administrator to identify a team of teachers with varying experience to develop a collaborative team. You will then provide leadership of the collaborative team by facilitating the development of a plan to improve instruction, student learning, and the school culture. You will be required to submit a 15-minute video demonstrating the facilitation of the plan.

For current information about the PASL tasks please visit the PASL website: click here. You will register for the PASL on their website. Here on this site you can also learn how to prepare for the assessment, build and submit your tasks, review the expected writing guidelines, see samples of work in the Library of Examples and understand how you will be scored. See appendix E for the links.

In the 2018-2019 year you have the choice to (1) pay $350 and submit your PASL task work to ETS®, or (2) submit your work to your professor of record. You will be asked to submit your Commitment for Scoring (see appendix F) that confirms your choice to the director of graduate internships before you begin your tasks. The PASL Spring 2019 submission deadline is April 10th. The registration deadline is April 1st and the task submission window opens January 4th, 2019.

APPENDIX A

ORAL ROBERTS UNIVERSITY GRADUATE SCHOOL OF EDUCATION

Introduction

The conceptual framework for the Oral Roberts University College of Education provides the structure for course content and standards, stated student competencies, instruction, assessment, and evaluation. The College of Education offers a diverse teacher preparation program designed to equip teacher candidates for initial assignments in elementary and secondary schools as well as advanced programs for school administration. The three segments—general education, specialized education, and professional education—are offered to prepare graduates for professional responsibilities in public, private, Christian, and home schools.

The philosophy of education which is embraced by the Oral Roberts University College of Education and which forms the basis for the teacher preparation program is one particularly concerned with the relationship between educational theory and practice—how theory is applied and assessed in practice, and how practice is evaluated to improve student performance.

Educating the Whole Person

In keeping with the University's Statement of Purpose, The College of Education is rooted in the philosophical position that education is the shaping of the whole person: spirit, mind, and body.

At the center of the education program at Oral Roberts University is the understanding that true wisdom and knowledge come from God. The Bible is God's inspired Word and is upheld as the standard and central point of reference. The College of Education prepares administrators; curriculum specialists; and teachers for public, private, and Christian schools to go into every person's world as transformed educators to transform society.

University Vision and Purpose

The Unit's conceptual framework is linked to the University's vision statement and incorporates the purposes of the University. The University's vision and purposes are the central focus of the Unit's design and are reflected in the Unit's activities.

VISION STATEMENT:

Oral Roberts University came into being as a result of its founder, Oral Roberts, obeying God's mandate to build a university on God's authority and the Holy Spirit. God's commission to Oral Roberts was to:

Raise up your students to hear My voice, to go where My light is dim, where My voice is heard small and My healing power is not known. To go even to the uttermost bounds of the earth. Their work will exceed yours, and in this I am well pleased.

13

Page 17: Internship in Executive School Leadership Internship Handbook.Spring...student; and (3) evaluate, cultivate, and advocate for equitable, inclusive, and culturally responsive instruction

STATEMENT OF PURPOSE:

It is the purpose of Oral Roberts University, in its commitment to the historic Christian faith, to assist the student in his/her quest for knowledge of his/her relationship to God, man, and the universe. Dedicated to the realization of truth and the achievement of one's potential life capacity, the University seeks to graduate an integrated person – spiritually alive, intellectually alert, and physically disciplined. To accomplish this purpose, Oral Roberts University seeks to synthesize by means of interdisciplinary cross-pollination the best traditions in liberal arts, professional, and graduate education, with a charismatic concern to enable students to go into every person's world with healing for the totality of human need.

Conceptual Model

A modified Celtic cross represents the visual conceptual framework for the unit. Because of the Christian foundation of Oral Roberts University, the use of a cross is appropriate as the visual model for the Conceptual Framework Model for the School of Education. The Celtic cross is distinguished by a circle surrounding the cross point. The ORU College of Education visual model consists of a strong foundation formed by the Oral Roberts University Mission and a Christian Worldview and Biblical Foundation. The cross is capped with General Education, while the crossbeam contents represent the Academic Area of Emphasis in each subject area of specialty, and the Professional Education component to represent pedagogical preparation. These four components reflect the University's focus on Spirit, Mind and Body.

The circle surrounding the point of crossing and merging of the Spirit, Mind, and Body components further connects all contents by implementing educational Competencies, Experiences, Outreach, and Assessment.

The Conceptual Framework includes a focus on the Spirit, Mind, and Body of each student:

The Spirit: ORU Mission—Christian Worldview and Biblical Foundation—commitment to the Christian heritage, and "Going into every person's world."

The Mind: General Education—emphasis on the humanities and the arts and sciences. Academic Area of Emphasis—subject area specialty Professional Education—pedagogical preparation

The Body: Attention to health and physical fitness

All of these combine in the Celtic cross to connect the components through clearly defined Competencies, Experiences, Assessments, and Outreach activities in the community and throughout the world to provide continuing assessment to identify successes, evaluate needs, and identify the basis for future improvements.

The entire Conceptual Model is overlaid on Oral Roberts University's unique Whole Person seal, symbolizing the University's founding purpose and emphasis on Spirit, Mind, and Body.

Theme

Transformed Educators " . . . be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind . . . " Romans 12:2

The Oral Roberts University School of Education's theme is "Transformed Educators." The School of Education's desire is to develop and train future educators as teachers, principals, superintendents, and other professional school personnel who have been transformed by the power of Jesus Christ and who demonstrate the character and dispositions of Christian values, ethics, and moral integrity. The College of Education also desires to develop students as transformed professional educators who know and demonstrate the content, pedagogical, and professional knowledge, skills, and dispositions necessary to help all students learn and to be educational leaders.

Vision

Transforming Society, The Miracle Ahead, A Transformed Generation "Ye have not chose me . . . I have chosen you and ordained you that you should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain." John 15:16

The Oral Roberts University College of Education vision is to train and develop professional school personnel who will go into every person's world, into public, private, Christian, and home schools as transformed educators. As transformed educators they will make such an impact that they will be a catalyst for transforming society, which in turn will help transform the next generation.

Mission

Preparing Professional Christian Educators to Go Into Every Person's World

The Oral Roberts University College of Education is charged to provide the opportunity for individuals who hold Christian principles to participate in initial and advanced study in preparation for professional public and private responsibilities in the field of education throughout the world.

Introduction to the ETS® Performance Assessment for School Leaders (PASL)

This internship fulfills a unique design in the candidate’s program, as it asks the candidate to collaborate with you, as well as the faculty, staff and students at your site, to complete the three tasks required for the ETS® Performance Assessment for School Leaders (PASL).

The PASL tasks assess proven best practices in administration and are designed to be completed within the context of normal school operations. The 3 tasks require your intern to submit to ETS® 19 artifacts, one 15-minute video and the responses to 70 questions in 22.5 pages or less. We are asking you to provide the time, access and guidance to enable your intern to successfully complete the following three PASL tasks.

PASL Tasks

Task 1: Your intern will work with you to identify a problem or challenge, research the issue, and develop and implement a plan that will affect instructional practice and student achievement.

Task 2: Your intern will work with you and a team of colleagues with different levels of experience to develop a list of significant professional development needs. Once the group decides on the priority area for professional development your intern will facilitate the professional development and analyze its effectiveness with walk-through observations and a feedback survey.

60

Page 64: Internship in Executive School Leadership Internship Handbook.Spring...student; and (3) evaluate, cultivate, and advocate for equitable, inclusive, and culturally responsive instruction

Task 3: Your intern will work with you to identify a team of 3-5 colleagues with varying levels and kinds of experience to develop a collaborative team. Your intern will then provide leadership of the collaborative team by facilitating the development of a plan to improve instruction, student learning, and the school culture. Your intern will be required to submit a 15-minute video demonstrating the facilitation and colleague feedback of the plan.

Intern Evaluations

In addition to collaborating with the Intern to complete the PASL tasks we would like you to evaluate your intern at the middle and end of the internship using the McREL evaluation tool found in the internship handbook.

Documents

For more details on your responsibilities, your intern’s responsibilities, PASL and the evaluation tool please see review the internship handbook with the candidate that contains the links, examples or exact copies of every document that is required.

Next Steps

Before agreeing to collaborate please take the time to review the internship handbook with the candidate. If you are aware of, and accept, the responsibilities for this exciting initiative please take the time sign the internship application form that the intern will provide. Then, set aside time for your intern to meet with you to do an in-depth review of the three task requirements and develop a plan to accomplish the work within the timeline for PASL submission to ETS®.

Director of Graduate Internships

Our director of graduate internships will be in touch with you once the internship application has been submitted to answer any questions you may have and check on the progress of the candidate.

We are here to help every step of the way. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to call or e-mail myself or the director of graduate internships.

Internship Evaluation

The goal of this internship is to achieve growth and development in the skills and knowledge it takes to be a successful administrator and demonstrate experience with proven methodologies for school improvement. An intern's final grade will take into account the results of this evaluation and other indicators of performance. The goal for both the intern and cooperating administrator is for the intern to (1) show improvement, and (2) complete the internship with "proficient" or "accomplished" in each category. Candidates will be formally observed twice by their cooperating administrator. Below are the steps for you to be aware of regarding the evaluations:
