Raising the Bar for Entry.\u00a0 <\/strong>Teachers should have a full year residency under supervision of a Master Teacher, and pass a rigorous classroom-based performance assessment at the end of candidacy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Teachers Ensuring Teacher Quality.<\/strong>\u00a0 A tiered system of achievement should be developed, with different compensation and responsibilities according to experience.\u00a0 There should also be 100 high-quality Peer Assistance and Peer Assistance and Review programs over the next two years.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Union Leadership to Transform the Profession.<\/strong>\u00a0 Teachers must take on leadership roles in order to have a presence at the policy table.\u00a0 Current policies reflect this notable absence in teacher leadership activities.<\/p>\n<p>The net effect of these strategies is intended to increase the quality of teacher candidates before they enter the classroom, to ensure that teachers are continually learning and improving their practice, and to improve student learning by improving the profession.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, Van Roekel pledged that the NEA\u2019s training network will train 1,000 teachers for leadership roles across the country, train thousands more in educational leadership, and provide support and training for high-quality teachers to serve as master teachers in teacher prep programs.<\/p>\n<p>To read the full story, please visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nea.org\/home\/49969.htm\">http:\/\/www.nea.org\/home\/49969.htm<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The National Education Association\u2019s (NEA) president, Dennis Van Roekel, recently announced a new action agenda for the nation\u2019s largest teachers union.\u00a0 The plan aims to further the union\u2019s goals of transforming the teaching profession and accelerating student learning, and utilizes proven best practices from teachers across the country.
