EXCELLENCE\n\nTo realize the goal of education excellence,states,colleges and schooldistricts must create more rigorous standards for teacher preparation,NationalEducation Association(NEA)President Mary Hatwood Futrell said yesterday.  \n\"The hiring of untrained teachers makes a sham out of efforts to 1mprove theteaching profession,\"she told a Washington,D.C.,news conference。\"Ournation must insist on the highest standards for teacher preparation.\"  \nFutrell,who blasted the alternative certification movements in many statesthat allow districts to hire teachers without teacher training,introduced afour-part plan to improve the quality of teacher training.  \nNew Guidelines\"I have before me a new set of guidelines I am releasingonly the most qualified candidates become teachers.\"  \nThe guidelines advise that even though there is a shrinking pool of candidateswho are seeking teaching as a profession,teacher education programs need tomaintain rigorous admission and graduation requirements.  \nA student applying to a teacher education program,the guidelines say,shouldmaintain a 2.5 grade point average in a demanding liberal arts curriculum,passa skills test measuring ability in math,reading and writing,complete at leastone academic major,pass a knowledge test in that major,and submit recommen-dations from teachers and other educators.  \nIncreasing DemandSecondly,students enrolled in a teacher educationprogram must master all the required coursework,and must simultaneously beinvolved in student teaching.As the student progresses in the program,thosestudent-teaching situations should get progressively more demanding·  \nThe guidelines also suggest that newly credentialed teachers complete a three-year internship under the direction of an experienced classroom teacher.Teachers who receive favorable evaluations would become fully accredited orlicensed at the end of the internship,the guidelines say.  \nFinally,the guidelines advocate a program by which all professional teachersare evaluated regularly and provided with inservice education opportunities.  \n\"All we have to do is look at the dramatic decline in teacher education grad-uates,including minority graduates,\"she said.\"Increasing numbers of col-lege students are bypassing teaching and choosing careers in other professionsthat offer better salaries and working conditions.\"--Susan J,Aluise  \n# NSF HEARINGS TO DETERMINE FATE OF UNDERGRADUATE SCIENCE EDUCATION\n\nThe National Science Foundation(NSF)will seek the advice of experts this fallin its drive to form a cohesive plan of national leadership and federal supportfor undergraduate science,engineering and mathematics education.  \nA committee appointed by NSF's National Science Board(NSB)will hold publichearings Sept.26,Oct.16 and Nov.20 to listen to industry,government andacademic experts'views on the condition of those subjects in the nation'scolleges and universities.  \nReport To CongressIn January,the committee will present NSB andCongress with recommendations for NSF,other federal agencies,universities andindustry on how to maintain national economic security by improving thoseeducation programs,according to Robert Watson,executive secretary of NSB'scommittee on undergraduate science and engineering education,Although NSF nowsupports various education programs at the undergraduate and graduate levels,no long-term plan for undergraduate programs exists,he said.  \n\"There is no formal recognition that the federal government is concerned about\"undergraduate science,engineering and mathematics education,Watson said.\"There are activities scattered throughout the government which impact\"thoseprograms,but \"there is no overall view,\"he added.  \nThis year,NSF awarded $50 million in grants to improve precollege programs,from the development of new
