Welcome  \n2. Commend-Middle Grades Faculty-AMLE and CEC-CAEP SPA recognition  \n• The Middle Grades faculty and Special Education team were commended for their strong work and national recognition.  \n• Recognition is connected to professional affiliations, including:  \n• Association for Middle Level Education (AMLE)  \n• Council for Exceptional Children (CEC)  \n• Council for the Accreditation of Educator Preparation (CAEP SPA)  \n• It was noted that not all programs have access to similar affiliation opportunities.  \n3. Impact Check (Program Coordinators) -Updates from each Program  \na) Report on the program's progress.  \no Programs were asked to submit impact checks this month.  \no These updates reflect: Assessment results from the fall, semester progress toward goals, challenges and opportunities identified; updates should reflect growth from the August assessment day through the fall semester to the present.  \nb) Any Changes to the programs recommended based on the data?  \nMiddle Grades (MAT) Program Report  \nData Concerns  \no The MAT program reports data concerns requiring long-term revisions rather than quick fixes.  \no Key issue: GACE certification exam scores.  \no GACE Score Challenges  \no Scores appear low in some areas (e.g., physical science), but breakdown data is unclear.  \no Many students take the GACE before entering or early in the program.  \no Current reporting includes pre-program test attempts, which may inaccurately reflect program effectiveness.  \no Students often take the GACE multiple times before passing, lowering reported averages.  \no MAT students must pass the GACE for provisional certification prior to employment, often before completing key coursework.  \no The program does not directly teach content-specific coursework (e.g., math, science), making it difficult to attribute low content exam scores to program quality.  \no Concern was expressed that external reviewers may misinterpret this data without context.  \no When reporting accreditation data (e.g., CEC file), clarification was provided that some GACE scores were invalid indicators of program impact, and that explanation was accepted.  \no The GACE score issue remains ongoing.  \n4. Updates on accreditation review preparation-Various Levels-Unit prep/standard prep/Program and degree level preparation?  \n• A recent SPA report identified a weakness in meeting one standard.  \n• The program is implementing a new assessment to better align with its philosophy and concepts.  \n• They are piloting an AML-aligned observation instrument to demonstrate stronger field connections.  \n• A new key assessment is being tested to align with AML standards and sub standards, since the traditional observation form does not meet AML alignment requirements.  \n• They conduct interview reliability checks, though it is diFicult due to diFering opinions on ambiguous samples.  \n• Internal reliability studies are emphasized as important for meeting CAPE and PSC requirements.  \n• Faculty are asked to review and document the status of their key assessments, including validity and reliability evidence.  \n5. Validity/Reliability – Key assessment and PL for all faculty-Timeline  \n• Substantive curriculum changes must be made this semester before the review portal opens.  \n• After substantive changes, at least one semester of data collection is required.  \n• Minor updates are allowed; changes to course sequencing may require formal review.  \n• Deadline for substantive changes needs clarification.  \n• Continuous improvement is encouraged within the review of the portal framework.  \n• Rubric and instructional revisions are allowed; key assessments are tightly regulated.  \n• Clarification is needed on what officially counts as a substantive change (follow up with Melissa) .  \n• Planned revisions are believed to qualify as substantive; key assessments expected to remain the same.  \nAssessment Cycle","cbCaiuJ8fMN7NcNA","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiuJ8fMN7NcNA","pdf",168272,"English","# Welcome\n# Commend-Middle Grades Faculty-AMLE and CEC-CAEP SPA recognition\n# Impact Check (Program Coordinators)\n# Updates on accreditation review preparation\n# Validity/Reliability - Key assessment and PL for all faculty\n# Assessment Cycles & Data Expectations\n# Leadership & Next Steps\n# Program Adjustments\n# Funding Opportunity","[{\"question\":\"What recognition did the committee discuss for the Middle Grades faculty and Special Education team?\",\"answer\":\"The committee commended the Middle Grades faculty and Special Education team for strong work and national recognition.
