In May, Miyoshi Domita Jones-Joseph of Belle Rose and Robbie James Kramer of Thibodaux completed the 18-month program developed to streamline the teacher certification process for college graduates who want new careers as teachers. The program was designed to address the shortage of certified teachers in K-12 classrooms. "These students are shining teachers rising to the top, and they serve as an example of the innovative, well-prepared teachers produced by the teacher certification program at Nicholls," said Dr. Patricia Caillouet, coordinator of the Practitioner Teacher Program and an associate professor of Education at NSU. Jones-Joseph, who earned a bachelors degree in criminal justice from Grambling State University, teaches English and language arts to eighth-grade students at Belle Rose Middle School. In the 2001-2002 school year, 65 of her 69 students passed the LEAP test, a success rate of 94 percent, which earned Jones Teacher of the Year honors from her school.

Undergraduate Bulletin 1999-2001 - Loyola University New Orleans To be recommended by Loyola University for certification as an elementary teacherin louisiana, the student must fulfill all the requirements specified by the http://www.loyno.edu/bulletin/undergraduate/1999/as/education.html
Extractions: Instructor: Yvonne Lehr From earliest times, teaching the young has been recognized as a noble task, necessary for the welfare of society. The rudimentary and narrow needs of earlier cultures have yielded to the ever-increasing requirements of more sophisticated civilizations. Modern times have witnessed an extraordinary quickening of the pace of change. The complex technological advances made in recent decades have not only complicated the world of which students will become a part, but have also impacted seriously on the ways students can be prepared to become effective and productive persons. As a consequence, teacher education programs must be designed on the basis of an insightful appreciation of the many different and rapidly changing factors that constitute contemporary society. Loyola University readily accepts the challenge inherent in these demands. Through its Department of Education and Counseling, the university is committed to engaging all its resources in preparing teachers who have the skills and the knowledge necessary to help students achieve what is required of them to become effective and productive members of the community in which they live. In such a way, Loyola University finds teacher education a particularly appropriate way of fulfilling its mission of service in the development of the individual in an often complex and ambiguous world.
