Abstract Details

2015, Doctor of Philosophy, University of Toledo, Foundations of Education.
This work is a historical, qualitative analysis of diversity and social justice in teacher education accreditation. The purpose of the study was twofold. The first purpose was determine how NCATE and CAEP conceptualized and emphasized these topics in the standards for the accreditation of teacher preparation over time. The second purpose was to determine the extent to which research or policy influence how these topics were conceptualized within the standards text. To accomplish these purposes, the researcher analyzed electronic versions of the NCATE and CAEP standards text, conducted reviews of educational research and conducted reviews of educational policy. The results obtained demonstrated that the conceptualization of diversity and social justice have changed during the time period covered in the research as a result of both research and policy. The balance shifted to mainly policy influence in more recent editions of the standards. Recommendations for extensions of this work are provided.
