Policy Profiles
In June 2004, Carnegie Corporation of New York commissioned
CPRE to examine the policy environments in the ten states
in which the grantees of the Corporation’s TNE project
are located. Recognizing that the success, sustainability,
and replication of these reforms will depend in part on the
state policy environments in which each institution operates,
the Corporation has asked CPRE to investigate two critical
questions:
• What policy changes may be needed to
ensure implementation, continuation, and spread of these reforms
in teacher education?
• What actions might be taken to bring
about these changes?
For each of the 10 states in which TNE institutions operate,
CPRE has developed a policy profile that explores the interaction
of state policies and programs with the core ideas and practices
associated with the three TNE design principles. The following
state profiles are available for free download:
California
Connecticut
Massachusetts
Michigan
New York (in press)
Texas (in press)
Virginia
Washington
Wisconsin
