recruit districts and schools, collect
student rosters, and administer a
baseline student achievement test for an
experimental study of the effect on
student learning of teachers who have
experienced certain types of clinical
practice features within universitybased preparation programs.
The objective of this study is to use
causal methods to examine the
effectiveness of certain university-based
clinical practice features for novice
teachers. Teachers who have
experienced certain types of clinical
practice features and who have
completed those features are
hypothesized to produce higher average
student test scores than teachers who
have not done so. Using a randomized
controlled trial, students will be
randomly assigned to a pair of teachers
in the same school and grade level, one
of whom will have experienced the type
of clinical practice of interest
(‘‘treatment’’) while the other will not
have experienced the feature
(‘‘control’’). Average test scores of the
two groups will then be compared.
The Phase I—Recruitment ICR entails
the identification of recently-hired
teacher pairs who meet the study’s
eligibility requirements. The study will
use a multi-step process to identify
these teachers, including identifying
feasible states for the study, selecting
the specific features related to clinical
practice (i.e., the ‘‘program’’),
identifying university-based teacher
preparation programs that require such
clinical practice, identifying feasible
districts and schools for the study, and
finally, confirming eligibility of
potential teachers for the study. The
Phase I—Recruitment ICR requests
approval to collect information from
preparation programs about their
requirements, focusing on aspects of
clinical practice specifically, and to
collect preliminary information from
teachers about their training to
determine their eligibility for the study.
This package also provides an overview
of the study, including its design and
data collecting procedures.
