Session Type: Symposium

Abstract

This symposium presents findings from a study of teacher preparation at four new graduate schools of education (nGSEs): High Tech High/High Tech High GSE, San Diego; Sposato GSE, Boston; the MAT program at the American Museum of Natural History, New York; and TEACH-NOW GSE, an entirely online program. The symposium has three objectives: (1) to present multiple cross-case analyses of core aspects of nGSE teacher preparation; (2) to consider whether and how teacher preparation at nGSEs is changing the institutional field; and, (3) to link analyses of teacher preparation at nGSEs to the pressing policy, political, and professional challenges of 2020 and beyond.
