[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]4th grade Teacher qualifications from real job posting which is online right now. Nothing in the qualifications talks about those cool courses listed by PP. I am not sure why there is a disconnect

Qualifications
• Meets Maryland state certification requirements in appropriate field of education
• Knowledge of MCPS curriculum, techniques for integrating curriculum, MCPS policies, and effective instructional practices
• Ability to provide instruction that reflects multiple perspectives and multicultural education
• Ability to infuse technology into curriculum
• Ability to work effectively with administrators, colleagues, central office and school based staff, students, parents and community
• Excellent oral and written communication and human relations skills
• Knowledge and application of the six performance standards that have been established for the Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS) Teacher Professional Growth System (TPGS), and the Supporting Services (SEIU) Professional Growth System (SSPGS)
• Bachelor's degree in applicable field of education from an accredited college or university[/quote]

They would easily fit under the first or last bullet on your list. Teachers who received an Education degree would have learned much of that in college. Teachers who went an alternative route (like me) would have had to take additional coursework in order to meet certification requirements. I’m a career changer. I had to take 15 credits of course work (even though I had a related masters degree) to be able to get my certificate. [/quote]
