coe-staff: My Contribution to Our Lunch Today (on behalf of Dean Kamphaus)

[Shaun Haskins]

Dear Faculty and Staff,

I am attaching an announcement just received from Johns Hopkins. I offer a variation on this idea as something to discuss or discard as an idea for distinguishing us and creating a new class of professional educators. This college-wide degree approach was also embraced by Fordham a few years ago. My idea, that I introduced during my colloquium last Spring, was to create an applied doctoral degree, characterized by broad training, that could serve schools, agencies, businesses, and governments as translator of research to practice and leader of change aimed at improving instructional programs (See slides 2 and 3; powerpoint attached).

I will see many of you at lunch.

Regards,

Randy
