Abstract

Now the generals have finished skirmishing in print, the vicechancellors (or presidents) begin. Common to both is the absence of troops, though to be sure they seem to appear in this particular quasi autobiography: as when the writer's little daughter (aged six) points to a picture in the New York Times and asks her father if it was of the university.

Abstract

"The Impact of PDS Partnerships in Challenging Times is the follow up to Doing PDS: Stories and Strategies from Successful Clinically Rich Practice (2018). The first book included stories that described our experiences across more than twenty-five years of PDS partnerships. We sought to examine and chronicle the innovative ways we negotiate school-university collaboration while explaining the development of the SUNY Buffalo State PDS consortium. This second volume strives to explore the impact of our endeavors individually at each school/community site and collectively as an entire consortium to point to the important ways that school-university partnership contributes to all stakeholders and where we might do better. SUNY Buffalo State's PDS roots go back to 1991 with one local school partner. Today this school-university partnership consortium connects with over 100 schools with approximately 45 signed agreements each semester in Western New York, nationally, and internationally. The SUNY Buffalo State PDS consortium is grounded in three frameworks for clinically rich practice: (a) the National Association for Professional Development Schools Nine Essentials (Brindley, Field, & Lesson, 2008); (b) CAEP Standards for Excellence in Educator Preparation, Standard 2 (http://caepnet.org/standards/standard-2, 2018); and (c) the Buffalo State Teacher Education Unit Conceptual Framework (https://epp.buffalostate.edu/conceptual-framework, 2018). Through specific examples, each chapter utilizes a case study approach to describe the nature of various partnerships situated in research with a focus on the impact of the partnership. The chapters are intentionally succinct to provide a focused look at a particular partnership activity as each contributes to the larger goals of the entire consortium. Every chapter follows a similar structure - defining a challenge identified by the members of the consortium, a review of the relevant literature, an explanation of how the school/community liaison team responded to the challenge and the data gathered to determine impact, an "impact at a glance" chart to report the findings, and an identification of the necessary next steps in the project"--

Abstract

"SUNY Buffalo State is a unique urban comprehensive liberal arts public institution serving a large number of first generation college students. One flagship program at the college is the Professional Development Schools (PDS) consortium. Beginning in 1991 with one partner school, the SUNY Buffalo State PDS consortium now partners with approximately 45 schools locally, in Western New York, New York City, and across five continents. This book seeks to share the skills, knowledge, and examples of evidence-based practice of this innovative program to offer readers ideas for how teacher education and professional development might be re-conceptualized and re-energized. As many educators at all levels worry about external forces pushing the learning process toward greater standardization, the example of the SUNY Buffalo State PDS offers realistic and doable ways to meet the varying needs of educational communities through innovative practices that benefit all members of school partnerships - children, their families, practicing teachers, teacher candidates, administrators, and university faculty. While the PDS consortium aligns with the goals of the NCATE PDS Standards (2001), the NAPDS Nine Essentials (2008), and the NCATE Blue Ribbon Panel Report (2010) thereby providing an important structure to the large network, its design ensures flexibility and creative solutions to the real problems facing education. In an accessible and user-friendly way, the book includes specific examples to provide explanations and models, templates of tools we have successfully used, and resources to develop new programs or enhance existing ones"--
