Homecoming 2013: College of Education Events
PARADE ROUTE:
Proficiency-Based Teaching In Family and Consumer Sciences
This August, the Oregon Association of Family and Consumer Sciences (ORFACS) and OSU partnered to offer a two-day workshop on how to develop proficiency-based assessment in the Family and Consumer Science (FACS) classroom.
Twenty nine teachers from across the state worked and collaborated to create coursework and rubrics that assesses students’ proficiency. Trisha Richmond from South Medford High School, a pilot school in proficiency-based assessment, shared her work from her FACS classroom and inspired many teachers to focus on how to teach to standards and proficiency. Teachers took course syllabuses and aligned them with FACS national standards and Essential skills, then spent an afternoon with other teachers writing rubrics that will be used to assess proficiency in the standards.
A follow-up workshop will be held in Downtown Portland on Statewide in-service day Oct 11th, 2013 and anyone is welcome to attend and learn what other teachers are doing for proficiency-based education.
For more information contact OSU’s College of Education instructor Sara Wright at wrighsar@onid.orst.edu.
Faculty Story with Shawn Rowe: Where the Classroom Ends
As an assistant professor of science education at Oregon State University, Shawn Rowe studies how people learn about science and the ocean outside of the classroom.
According to Rowe, people do most of their learning over the course of their entire lives, rather than the years they spend in formal education.
Here, Rowe talks about “free choice learning,” and how his work can help promote it.

10 great family-friendly museums (USA Today)
It’s easy to add a bit of education to your family vacation. Museums have upped the wow factor in recent years, creating galleries and programs that engage the mind and imagination. “These are cool places where you get to see things that aren’t in your everyday life,” says Lynn Dierking, a science and math education professor at Oregon State University and co-author of Museum Experience Revisited.
The Condition of Oregon’s K-12 Education System
The Chalkboard Project’s vision is to see Oregon’s schools among the top ten in the nation as measured by student achievement. The report, “Better Schools, Better Oregon: The Conditions of K-12 Education,” is Chalkboard’s regular report on the state of education and progress toward becoming a top-ten state. The report draws upon national and state-level data as well as local district data.
This is the first time the report also highlights what’s working in Oregon and draws from promising outcomes in Chalkboard’s CLASS districts.
“While the news in the report is disappointing, Oregonians should remain hopeful,” said Sue Hildick, Chalkboard Project President. “The state is beginning to turn the lessons from CLASS into statewide policy through mentoring for new teachers, meaningful performance evaluations, teacher leadership opportunities, and professional development for educators to meet the needs of all Oregon students. We do believe that these investments in great teaching will turn the tide for Oregon.”
