CAEP Annual Reporting
York College has three academic schools. The EPP is located within the School of Health Sciences and Professional Programs, and consists of the Department of Teacher Education and portions of the Department of Health and Physical Education, which houses the K-12 Health Education and Physical Education programs.
The EPP is a CAEP’s 2020 recipient of the Frank Murray Leadership Recognition for Continuous Improvement and is fully accredited. The EPP continues to recognize the importance of ongoing data collection and analysis and uses multiple measures to assess its programs to be informed about the quality of program completers’ preparation. During the most recent CAEP accreditation process, the following are the EPP programs that were reviewed by CAEP:
- Biology/ Education 7-12 (BA)
- Chemistry/ Education 7-12 (BS)
- Earth Science/Education 7-12 (BS)
- English Education/Middle School Extension (BA)
- Health Education
- History Education/Middle School Extension (BA)
- Interdisciplinary Studies / Teacher Education 1-6 (BA)
- Mathematics Education 7-12 (BS)
- Physical Education
- Spanish Childhood Bilingual Education (BA)
The data displayed on this page address the CAEP Accountability Measures and were collected during the 2020-2021 academic year.
The data address completers' impact in contributing to P-12 student-learning growth and completers' effectiveness in applying professional knowledge skills and dispositions. For this measure, the EPP conducted case studies during 2020-2021 academic year.
Measure 1(Initial): Completer Effectiveness
Below are the data for the case studies that were conducted in 2020-2021 academic year to address completers' impact in contributing to P-12 student-learning growth and completers' effectiveness in applying professional knowledge, skills and dispositions.
Case Study: Mathematics Education 7-12 Graduate
The alum profiled in this case study graduated from York College Teacher Education Mathematics 7-12 program within the last 3 years. In this case study, the pronouns "they/their" will be used to support the anonymity of the participant.
The data in the tables included in the case study were based upon the alum's self-assessment of teaching in the 2020-2021 academic year, focusing on a lesson concerning slope. The faulty member's ratings in these tables were based upon interviews with the alum and written materials shared by the alum including lesson plans and analyses of student performance data. The principal ratings are based on self-reports from the alum about feedback from informal observations since formal observations have been delayed due to COVID.
Across most measures of teacher effectiveness and impact on student learning, the alum in this case study performed at the Effective level. Where performance was at the Developing level, this can be directly linked to the limitations of teaching during COVID.

Discussion:
This is the alum's first year at this school. Thus, their only experience with the school and its community has been during COVID, when mobility has been severely restricted. During several months of this year, instruction was completely remote, meaning that the teacher did not go to the school and its community. The remainder of the year involved hybrid instruction in which half the students were in the classroom and half participating on line each day. The alum described members of their department, support for new faculty, and the school's administration in detail. The alum said that they had not had an opportunity to explore the school building away from their own classroom and had limited interactions with other faculty members. The alum described in detail the resources used during instruction, both technological and physical in the classroom. Answers to interview questions included details of daily routines and rituals of instruction. Although the alum self-rated as a level 4, the artefacts necessary for that rating were not shared in the interview. Both interview questions and lesson plans demonstrated deep understanding of students in the alum's classes, which were limited to the students who attended class either in person or remotely. Instructional decisions relied upon this knowledge of the students and the available instructional resources.

Discussion:
The alum created a coherent lesson plan that was driven by age appropriate mathematics standards and their understanding of the students' cultures and academic skill levels. The alum reported that this lesson was based upon their assessment of students' learning in previous lessons and was leading to more substantial challenges connected to preparation for the Algebra Regents exam. The alum discussed the ongoing use of math problems related to the students' lives. While the alum was focused on their students' developmental levels, they believed that the remote learning format limited access to students' prior knowledge, claiming to be surprised by some misconceptions. While this was the reason for the level 2 self-rating, the faculty reviewer identified the level of insight necessary for a level 3 rating.

Discussion:
The lesson plan and interviews demonstrate significant embodiment of content knowledge and pedagogical content knowledge. The lesson plan was detailed and followed a logical learning progression involving gradual release. The plan included differentiated learning tasks that students pursued in deliberately structured groups that were limited by the fact that only part of the class was present in the classroom. Throughout the lesson the students had the opportunity to use technology as a learning tool. While the alum demonstrated pedagogical content knowledge, they could not cite sources of research or theory that were the basis of instructional decisions.

The data for this measure is from Assessment L Employer Survey
Measure 2: Satisfaction of Employers
The Department of Teacher Education at York College, CUNY collects data to obtain an understanding of how well the EPP is preparing teachers to work in the classroom. A survey (Assessment K – Alumni Survey) is emailed to program completers one year after they graduate. Upon receipt of the completed survey, if the completer indicates that he/she is teaching, the EPP emails Assessment L: Employer Survey to the employer to collect further data on effectiveness of program completers. Both surveys (Alumni and Employer) focus on how well the EPP prepares candidates in the following areas: pedagogy, learners, instructions, instructional resource management, and professionalism.
The data below reflect employers’ and program completers’ satisfaction with the EPP for the following academic years: 2020-2021, 2019-2020 and 2018-2019.
For 2020-2021 the EPP received data from 1 employer. The data shows that the employer is pleased with the completer’s ability as the ratings were mostly “Strongly Agree”.
For 2019-2020 the EPP received data from 4 employers for 4 2019-2020 program completers. The data shows that employers mostly “Strongly Agree” and “Agree” that program completers were effectively prepared.
The EPP acknowledges that there are responses of “Somewhat Agree” and “Disagree” for two items in 2019-2020; however, since the numbers are small no conclusion could be drawn. The EPP is pleased to note that for the most current year (2020-2021) responses are mostly “Strongly Agree,” thereby showing that candidates are well prepared for the teaching
The EPP continues to be faced with low return of completers and employers surveys and is currently working on alternative ways to collect program satisfaction data.
Owing to the small numbers of program completers, the data are not disaggregated by program to ensure employers/completers confidentiality.

*2019-2020: One employer did not provide answer for “Design and ask a variety of questions designed to encourage critical and higher-order thinking”.
Data provided relates to measures the EPP uses to determine if candidates are meeting program expectations and ready to be recommended for licensure. For this measure, the EPP focused on data from Assessment I (Lesson Planning/Observation/Reflection) and Assessment C (Dispositions). Assessment I and C are measures that the EPP uses to determine candidate competency at completion. The data were collected during 2020-2021 academic year.
Assessment C- Dispositions
Data Report: Spring 2021 and Fall 2020
The data below reflects the score candidates received during student teaching with regard to dispositions. These ratings were submitted by clinical supervisors. The data shows that candidates received "effective" and "highly effective" scores mostly, which is pleasing to the EPP. The number Ns are low because not all clinical supervisors submitted an assessment for all candidates. The EPP is concerned about this and have addressed this concerned by having assessment training sessions for all clinical supervisors and instructors. Data are not disaggregated by programs because of confidentiality for completers

Assessment I: Lesson Evaluation
Part C: Reflection Evaluation
Data Report: Spring 2021 & Fall 2022
Part C assesses the candidate’s ability to reflect on his/her instruction and respond to feedback from his/her clinical supervisor. Clinical supervisors submitted the data below during the respective semester when candidates student taught. The data below shows that candidates received mostly “effective” and “highly effective” scores, which is pleasing to the EPP. The EPP is aware and is concern that the Ns are low. This is because not all clinical supervisors submitted assessment for all candidates. This may be attributed to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the EPP have addressed this concern by having assessment submission training sessions for all clinical supervisors and instructors. Data are not disaggregated by programs because of confidentiality for completers.

The data focuses on the ability of completers to be hired in positions for which they were prepared.
Measure 4: Ability of Completers to be hired
The data below reflect the number of program completers for three years along with certification and hired data. The number of “Hired in Area of Certification” is low because of the low returns of graduates’ survey, which informs if and where students are hired. Certification information is obtained from TEACH. The data shows for 2020-2021 91% of program completers are certified and ready to be hired.
