<![CDATA[Fellow Advisors—Texas Teaching Fellows — Dallas Application Deadline – March 15, 2010 Texas Teaching Fellows, in conjunction with The New Teacher Project (TNTP), is seeking part-time Fellow Advisors for the Texas Teaching Fellows’ summer Training Institute in Dallas in the areas of Math 8-12 and ESL/Generalist 4-8. Texas Teaching Fellows (TTF) was created to attract and facilitate the entry of highly qualified teaching candidates for hard-to-staff positions. A state-approved alternative certification program sponsored by the Texas Education Agency, Texas Teaching Fellows is charged with recruiting 350 outstanding career changers from a variety of backgrounds to commit to teaching in the state’s public schools. Fellows will teach in Dallas and Austin in hard-to-staff positions in our partner school districts. Through a rigorous pre-service training institute, they will prepare to enter the classrooms in fall 2010. During the 2010-11 school year, Fellows will participate in TTF’s professional development series, Teaching for Results, and other program administration activities as they work toward their certification. The Summer Institute is an intensive, six-week program, held throughout June and July, which prepares Fellows to begin teaching in the fall. The Institute is comprised of two main components: Practice Teaching and Framework Sessions. The practice teaching component provides Fellows with the opportunity to observe and participate in summer school instruction with cooperating teachers. Fellows begin the summer school experience by observing and gradually increase classroom responsibilities to include lesson planning, small group instruction and finally delivering lessons. In Framework Sessions, Fellows receive instruction using Teaching for Student Achievement, a curriculum specially designed to help career-changers become successful classroom teachers. These sessions are built around two curricular strands: Classroom Culture and Management and Instructional Design and Delivery. Fellow Advisors – experienced teachers assigned to specific content groups - lead the Framework Sessions, which are geared toward learning and reflecting on effective teaching strategies, classroom management, and creating a classroom culture that promotes student achievement. Role and Responsibilities Fellow Advisors (FA) are a critical component of Fellows’ summer training and their readiness to enter the classroom. Each FA works directly with a group of approximately 10-20 Fellows, observing them in their summer schools placements in the morning and leading 2.5-hour Framework Sessions in the afternoon. FAs are experienced and successful teachers, who guide Fellows as they learn to set high academic goals, invest students in these goals, and work strategically to meet them. Most importantly, FAs help to foster a culture of excellence that encourages Fellows to continually strive for quality and to support and challenge one another. In Dallas, we are seeking Fellow Advisors in Math 8-12 and ESL/Generalist 4-8. Specifically, the Fellow Advisor will: Pre-Institute Activities • Attend a New Hire Orientation – tentatively set for mid-April. • 3-day FA Training - dates: April 22nd (evening), May 1st, May 8th. • Internalize TNTP’s curriculum framework, Teaching for Student Achievement (TfSA) and its materials • Prepare in advance for Teaching for Student Achievement Framework Sessions • Attend pre institute planning meetings Institute Activities • Ensure Fellows meet the objectives of the Institute curriculum • Observe and provide constructive feedback to fellows at field training sites • Help Fellows make connections between coursework and field experiences • Document and report Fellows’ progress throughout the Institute • Prepare for and lead daily 2.5-hour sessions on the Teaching for Student Achievement Framework • Model best-practice teaching • Incorporate student work, organizational tools, district-specific curricula and other artifacts from their classroom to give Fellows the specific tools to make Teaching for Student Achievement a reality • Maintain good communication and diplomatic relations with the staff at their assigned field training sites • Establish a culture of excellence that encourages Fellows to continually strive for quality and to support and challenge one another • Provide accurate and up to date information to Fellows re: program policies, logistics, and messages, including information related to securing a teaching position for the fall • Relay questions/issues/outcomes between TTF office and Fellows • Maintain an accessible and consistent presence for Fellows • Meet with Fellows regularly to discuss progress to date • Regularly check and respond to emails from Fellows, staff, and cooperating teachers • Participate in planning meetings with TTF Staff and other Fellow Advisors, plan sessions, and norm feedback standards • Participate in collaborative meetings with TTF Staff to discuss Fellow progress • Design and lead short workshops for Fellows on topics chosen by the FA (new FAs will design and lead at least one workshop; experienced FAs will design and lead at least two workshops) Post-Institute Activities • Plan and co-facilitate a final 3-hour Framework session (mid-August) focused on final preparations for the first days of school.
