Quarterly  \nCARNEGIE CORPORATION OF NEW YORKVOLUME XXXIV/NUMBER 2SPRING 1989  \n# Certifying and Rewarding Teaching Excellence:The National Board for Professional Teaching Standards\n\nTeaching is not a lost art,but the regardfor it is a lost tradition.—Jacques Barzun  \nIn May 1987 the National Board for Professional TeachingStandards came into existence with the backing of powerfulteachers'unions,state governors,educators,corporate leaders,and concerned citizens committed to a vision of basic reformin American education.\"That vision,\"states Board chair James  \nB.Hunt,Jr.,\"places the advancement of teaching at the heartof the larger movement to reform schools.\"Its governing idea  \nis that teachers certified as the best in their field will be able toassume new powers and responsibilities in the drive to raisethe educational achievements of students and prepare them fora world increasingly shaped by advances in science andtechnology.  \nThe Board's immediate aim is to develop standards for thecertification of teachers;its larger goal is to serve as a vehiclefor securing public consensus on the need to improve teachingnationwide and to join with other progressive interests in sus-taining the commitment to school reform.  \n## Teachers:The Keystone ofEducational Reform\n\nFormation of the nonprofit,nongovernmental Board to \"sethigh and rigorous standards for what teachers need to knowand be able to do and to certify teachers who meet thosestandards\"was the leading recommendation of the Task Forceon Teaching as a Profession of the Carnegie Forum on Edu-cation and the Economy.Its report,A Nation Prepared:Teach-ersfor the 21st Century(May 1986),reaffirmed the role of theteacher as the \"best hope\"for ensuring educational excellencein elementary and secondary education.“Though many peoplehave vital roles to play,\"said the Task Force,\"only the teach-ers can finally accomplish the agenda we have laid out.”  \nThe report proposed a comprehensive framework of actionsto upgrade and reward the teaching profession,making it moreattractive and rewarding as a career and also holding it account-able for results.In addition to the national certification system,recommendations concerned strengthening teacher prepara-tion,opening the profession to all college arts and sciencesgraduates,bringing in more minority members,revamping thesystem of compensation to teachers,altering the school envi-ronment to make teaching more effective and productive,andencouraging communities to set goals for school performanceto which teachers could subscribe.  \nCreated just a year after the Task Force on Teaching issuedits report,the Board is concentrating on the quality of teachereducation,ways to attract able candidates into the field,andthe working environment for teachers.“The fulcrum of theBoard's work,\"as President James A.Kelly puts it,will bedevelopment of the national system to certify teachers.  \nThe Board is seeking to define the “knowledge,skill,anddispositions”that teachers who are aiming for Board-certifi-cation will need to possess.The Board's assessment standardswill be grounded in a professional conception of the teachingrole and on the best available evidence of effective practice.The Board will try to attest to candidates'capacity to applytheir expertise in a variety of school settings,with students ofdifferent backgrounds and needs.Candidates for certificationwould be asked to explain not only how they would teach in aparticular circumstance,but also why they have selected aparticular approach.The assessment process itself,it is hoped,would encourage teachers to stay abreast of new findings andinnovations in teaching and help to advance the field.  \nThe Board's mission is one that its members unanimouslyendorse.\"Higher standards,\"explains Board member Thomas  \nH.Kean,New Jersey's governor,“is the idea that drives theeffort to make teaching the profession that will attract and holdthe people that America needs.Teachers themselves must helpdefine th","cbCaiiNGWCvU9PEd","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiiNGWCvU9PEd","pdf",4047833,13,"English","# Certifying and Rewarding Teaching
