Teacher Features

Showcasing Events of the Union College Education Program

As part of the New Teacher Induction Plan, each new teacher is given the opportunity to fill out a survey that allows them to express how well prepared they were for their first year of teaching.

Surveys are sent both to the new teacher and to their supervisor. These surveys are carefully studied and many times changes are made in the program to enhance the effectiveness of it for future education majors.

Some of the best suggestions come from the new teachers who are experiencing the challenges and rewards of being new to the profession. Their fresh new outlook and input helps keep the program on the cutting edge.

The surveys were sent out during the last week of March enabling the teachers and supervisors enough time before the end of the semester to carefully and thoughtfully provide answers and suggestions.
