Title: Teacher Preparation | |
Abstract:
The Secretary proposed to (1) issue regulations under title II of the Higher Education Act of 1965 (HEA), so that annual State report cards on teacher preparation submitted to the Department as part of the title II reporting system provide more meaningful data on the performance of each teacher preparation program in the State, and (2) amend the regulations governing the Teacher Education Assistance for College and Higher Education (TEACH) Grant Program under title IV of the HEA to consider teacher preparation program quality when determining a program's eligibility to participate in the TEACH Grant Program and to update, clarify, and improve the current regulations and align them with title II reporting system data. Some commenters requested clarification regarding how the proposed State reporting requirements would affect teacher preparation programs provided through distance education and TEACH Grant eligibility for students enrolled in teacher preparation programs provided through distance education. In response to these comments, the Department is considering revising the proposed regulations to clarify these areas. This supplemental notice of proposed rulemaking (supplemental NPRM) therefore reopens the public comment period on the Teacher Preparation Issues proposed rule for 30 days solely to seek comment on these specific issues. |
