Temporary Faculty Pool - University Coach (Supervisor), Multiple Subject & Single Subject Teaching Credential Programs Department Overview [ Department website ] The Department of Curriculum and Instruction offers courses for the preparation and professional development of PreK-12 teachers in both the Multiple Subject (elementary) and the Single Subject (secondary) Credential Programs. The department also houses two master's programs (M.A.Ed.-C&I and MAT) and two advanced certificate programs - educational technology and research methods. The Department provides educational research courses for eight graduate programs in the Kremen School. Department faculty are active in teaching, scholarship, service, and grant leadership. Position Summary The University Coach (Supervisor) is a faculty member in the Curriculum and Instruction Department, supervising Teacher Credential Candidates for the Multiple Subject and/or Single Subject Credential Programs. Coaches are assigned Teacher Credential Candidates by the Office of Clinical Practice. Serving as a liaison between the University and the cooperating schools (schools in which teaching candidates are placed), coaches provide the schools with information about the Teacher Credential Candidates and the Multiple Subject or Single Subject program. In turn, they communicate the cooperating schools’ suggestions and their needs to the University for improvement of the Multiple Subject or Single Subject Teacher Education Programs. University Coaches (Supervisors) should have recent professional and/or teaching experience in an elementary and/or secondary setting where the curriculum aligns with recently adopted state standards and the school reflects the diversity of California’s student population. The University Coach (Supervisor) should have current knowledge of supervision approaches such as cognitive coaching, adult learning theory, and current “content specific” pedagogy and instructional practices. All University Coaches (Supervisors) will be evaluated by their Teacher Credential Candidate(s) and the Mentor Teacher at the end of the semester and will receive regular peer evaluations of their coaching from a faculty member. Evaluation results will be placed in their Faculty Personnel Action File (PAF). Instructor Responsibility : Temporary faculty members are responsible for adherence to and implementation of university and system-wide policies as directed per Academic Policy Manual 306 , paragraph 2. Instructors are responsible for the preparation, delivery, conducting, proctoring, and grading (as appropriate) lectures, office hours, homework assignments, quizzes, class projects, and midterm and final exams. All classes must be offered and meet as scheduled throughout the entire semester, in the mode assigned and listed in the schedule of classes (i.e. asynchronous, synchronous, in-person, or hybrid). Coach Responsibilities : Coaches are considered Temporary Faculty members. As such, they are responsible for adherence to and implementation of university and system-wide policies as directed per Academic Policy Manual 306 , paragraph 2. Individuals hired as coaches/university supervisors are expected to: Meet with Mentor Teachers for an orientation to go over course requirements, discuss expectations, roles, and co-teaching during the first two weeks of the semester or after student teaching begins. Note: Orientation can occur as a “triad” meeting; a triad meeting involves the Teacher Candidate, Mentor Teacher and University Coach (Supervisor). Make regular visits to the school site for the purpose of meeting with Teacher Candidates, Mentor Teachers, Administrators/designee, or visiting/observing Teacher Candidates. Visits include holding small group, individual, or virtual discussions to review pertinent information. University Coaches may enhance communication and contacts with teacher candidates (via phone, webinar, online community, etc.). Complete (in TK20) a minimum of six formal lesson observations using scripted field notes or an observation rubric based on the California Teacher Performance Expectations (TPEs) to provide formative, action-oriented feedback. At least four of the lesson observations must be in-person, face-to-face; the remaining two may be synchronous/asynchronous video observation. Have a debriefing meeting with the candidate after each observation to guide the candidate's reflection on the lesson and provide feedback. Be available and maintain communication with the Teacher Candidate and Mentor Teacher throughout the entire semester (as established by the University Calendar) to ensure that the candidate is progressing; provide feedback on growth areas. Review lesson plans and reflections, and provide continuous feedback to the Teacher Candidate throughout the semester. Use their experience and knowledge to assist (consult, collaborate) the Teacher Candidate in understanding and applying current teaching methods, related materials and resources. Use effective questioning and coaching strategies to help the Teacher Candidate become skillful in continuous self-assessment, self-reflection, and goal setting. Discuss and document “areas for improvement” at the first sign of need. Monitor progress and contact the Program Coordinator (if the candidate is Single Subject, the appropriate Academic Subject Matter Coordinator should also be contacted) if the “areas for improvement” does not yield expected growth. Review the Credential Candidate or Concerns section of the Office of Clinical Practice Handbook to determine if a “Statement of Concern” is warranted. Support Candidates in basic needs and emotional and mental health areas (if concerns arise about a candidate’s well-being, the Coach is asked to please notify the Program Coordinator and, if the candidate is Single Subject, the appropriate Academic Subject Matter Coordinator). Become familiar with resources available at the Fresno State Student Health and Counseling Center: https://www.fresnostate.edu/studentaffairs/health/index.htm Evaluate the Teacher Candidate’s Site Visitation Project and/or Teaching Sample Project and schedules time to debrief results with the Teacher Candidate; provides remediation if necessary.

Temporary Faculty Pool - University Coach (Supervisor), Multiple Subject & Single Subject Teaching Credential Programs Department Overview [ Department website ] The Department of Curriculum and Instruction offers courses for the preparation and professional development of PreK-12 teachers in both the Multiple Subject (elementary) and the Single Subject (secondary) Credential Programs. The department also houses two master's programs (M.A.Ed.-C&I and MAT) and two advanced certificate programs - educational technology and research methods. The Department provides educational research courses for eight graduate programs in the Kremen School. Department faculty are active in teaching, scholarship, service, and grant leadership. Position Summary The University Coach (Supervisor) is a faculty member in the Curriculum and Instruction Department, supervising Teacher Credential Candidates for the Multiple Subject and/or Single Subject Credential Programs. Coaches are assigned Teacher Credential Candidates by the Office of Clinical Practice. Serving as a liaison between the University and the cooperating schools (schools in which teaching candidates are placed), coaches provide the schools with information about the Teacher Credential Candidates and the Multiple Subject or Single Subject program. In turn, they communicate the cooperating schools’ suggestions and their needs to the University for improvement of the Multiple Subject or Single Subject Teacher Education Programs. University Coaches (Supervisors) should have recent professional and/or teaching experience in an elementary and/or secondary setting where the curriculum aligns with recently adopted state standards and the school reflects the diversity of California’s student population. The University Coach (Supervisor) should have current knowledge of supervision approaches such as cognitive coaching, adult learning theory, and current “content specific” pedagogy and instructional practices. All University Coaches (Supervisors) will be evaluated by their Teacher Credential Candidate(s) and the Mentor Teacher at the end of the semester and will receive regular peer evaluations of their coaching from a faculty member. Evaluation results will be placed in their Faculty Personnel Action File (PAF). Instructor Responsibility : Temporary faculty members are responsible for adherence to and implementation of university and system-wide policies as directed per Academic Policy Manual 306 , paragraph 2. Instructors are responsible for the preparation, delivery, conducting, proctoring, and grading (as appropriate) lectures, office hours, homework assignments, quizzes, class projects, and midterm and final exams.

At least four of the lesson observations must be in-person, face-to-face; the remaining two may be synchronous/asynchronous video observation. Have a debriefing meeting with the candidate after each observation to guide the candidate's reflection on the lesson and provide feedback. Be available and maintain communication with the Teacher Candidate and Mentor Teacher throughout the entire semester (as established by the University Calendar) to ensure that the candidate is progressing; provide feedback on growth areas. Review lesson plans and reflections, and provide continuous feedback to the Teacher Candidate throughout the semester. Use their experience and knowledge to assist (consult, collaborate) the Teacher Candidate in understanding and applying current teaching methods, related materials and resources. Use effective questioning and coaching strategies to help the Teacher Candidate become skillful in continuous self-assessment, self-reflection, and goal setting. Discuss and document “areas for improvement” at the first sign of need. Monitor progress and contact the Program Coordinator (if the candidate is Single Subject, the appropriate Academic Subject Matter Coordinator should also be contacted) if the “areas for improvement” does not yield expected growth. Review the Credential Candidate or Concerns section of the Office of Clinical Practice Handbook to determine if a “Statement of Concern” is warranted. Support Candidates in basic needs and emotional and mental health areas (if concerns arise about a candidate’s well-being, the Coach is asked to please notify the Program Coordinator and, if the candidate is Single Subject, the appropriate Academic Subject Matter Coordinator).

JEIE/DIVERSITY STATEMENT PROMPT Diversity is a defining feature of California’s past, present, and future. Increasing the diversity of our educators to better reflect the population of California is just one aspect of the College of Education’s dedication to just, equitable, and inclusive education. Diversity refers to the variety of personal experiences, values, and worldviews that arise from differences of culture and circumstance. Such differences include race, ethnicity, gender, age, religion, language, abilities/disabilities, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, geographic region, and more. All College of Education students leave with a perspective that recognizes, acknowledges, and respects the knowledge and strengths all students bring from their communities. This perspective is known as Just, Equitable, and Inclusive Education (JEIE) and is evident in all our programs. College of Education students use this perspective to make community-based assets an integral component of curricular and pedagogical development. In this way, our graduates learn to value and draw upon students’ backgrounds not only to support them in developing skills leading to success in the broader society, but also as a mechanism to transform our communities. We believe that all faculty and staff who work for the college must share these same commitments.

JEIE/DIVERSITY STATEMENT PROMPT Diversity is a defining feature of California’s past, present, and future. Increasing the diversity of our educators to better reflect the population of California is just one aspect of the College of Education’s dedication to just, equitable, and inclusive education. Diversity refers to the variety of personal experiences, values, and worldviews that arise from differences of culture and circumstance. Such differences include race, ethnicity, gender, age, religion, language, abilities/disabilities, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, geographic region, and more. All College of Education students leave with a perspective that recognizes, acknowledges, and respects the knowledge and strengths all students bring from their communities. This perspective is known as Just, Equitable, and Inclusive Education (JEIE) and is evident in all our programs. College of Education students use this perspective to make community-based assets an integral component of curricular and pedagogical development. In this way, our graduates learn to value and draw upon students’ backgrounds not only to support them in developing skills leading to success in the broader society, but also as a mechanism to transform our communities. We believe that all faculty and staff who work for the college must share these same commitments.
