Leading education effectively
Today, the national discussion about education is
largely focused on showing results and evaluating
what educators do.
This isn’t something new at the Indiana University
School of Education. our faculty and staff have always
prepared future classroom teachers and education
leaders to be reflective, self-critical and committed
to evidence-based practices to improve teaching and
learning.
We systematically review what our students, alumni
and others have to say about what we do well and what
deserves more attention. We’ve received some striking
comments from students that I think are telling about
the IU School of Education.
“Being a teacher isn’t what you do, it’s who you are,”
one of our students told us. That’s something we hope
all of our students embrace. They enter a profession
that is—as another student put it—“a lifestyle.” The
teachers who earn an IU School of Education degree
learn quickly that they have entered a community of
professionals, highly-qualified to promote teaching and
learning for all students in all areas of the world.
That’s why our teachers have made a demonstrable
impact on the lives they touch. The commitment to a
calling, not just a career, shows in the performance of
our alumni. Within these pages, you’ll read about three
state teachers of the year, a teacher of the year runnerup,
a couple of Chicago-area award-winning teachers
and an outstanding administrator, all who have
advanced education further in these times of change.
From creating engaging online curricula to capturing
the attention of struggling readers to creating the
high school for the modern age, our alumni are
leading the charge for effective education.
other major accomplishments are also breaking
new ground. We have begun offering IU’s first online
doctoral degree; new centers to assist schools
on issues of equity and community development
have started in Indianapolis; our faculty has earned
numerous honors as leading teachers and scholars
influencing educational practice near and far; and
our international projects are providing hope through
education in war-torn places such as Afghanistan.
The students and alumni who spoke to us
explained that the School ignited a passion they
brought here. They sought the lifestyle; the IU School
of Education provided the tools. “You have to be an
advocate,” one student said of his role as an educator.
“I would fight for elementary education,” another said.
“The School of Education at IU gave me that passion.”
The German dramatist Friedrich Hebbel
said, “nothing great in the world has ever been
accomplished without passion.” The passion of our
students, faculty and staff has driven numerous
accomplishments.
our annual report is, by definition, about showing
the results of our work. As we know from our
students and alumni, we are leading not just by
example, we are preparing passionate advocates for
education who are making a difference in the world.

Faculty work lauded in two of state’s
largest ISTEP+ gains
When the latest scores for the Indiana
Statewide Testing for Education
Progress Plus (ISTEP+) came out in the
summer of 2012, a few schools stood
out among several that improved on
test performance. The Indiana Department
of Education celebrated a thirdstraight
year of rising scores, but noted
particular schools for their remarkable
progress.
Columbus Signature Academy
Fodrea Campus (CSA Fodrea) rose 30
percent in pass rates from last year,
the state’s highest gain. Not far behind
was Indianapolis Public School’s #96,
Meredith Nicholson Elementary, which
jumped 22 percent—sixth-highest of the
ISTEP+ improvements.
Annela Teemant
Both of these schools share a common
bond aside from the desire of
teachers, administrators and students
to perform better: each has worked
with Annela Teemant, associate professor
in second language education
at the IU School of Education at IUPUI.
Teemant worked with each school to
develop methods for project-based
learning, some specifically aimed at
improving teaching and learning for
English as a Second Language (ESL)
learners.
“Test results follow good teaching,”
Teemant said of the improvements.
“I think our overemphasis on testing
“Test results follow
good teaching.”

in educational policy these days is taking away from
what would really improve student outcomes across
the state and country: well-funded and sustained professional
development focused on student learning.”
Teemant has worked for years on a studentfocused
method of instruction in which teachers serve
as “coaches” to spread the method to colleagues.
CSA Fodrea utilized a method Teemant piloted at
the Center for Research on Education, Diversity and
Excellence (CREDE) at the University of California-
Berkeley —a coaching technique based on five teaching
standards: joint productive activity (teacher and
students producing together); language development;
contextualization (making meaning, connecting school
to students’ lives); challenging activities (teaching
complex thinking); and instructional conversation
(teaching through conversation).
Teachers and administrators at the two schools
speak about how the methods have transformed
classrooms. “There is absolutely no doubt in my mind
that pBL implemented through CREDE stations is the
reason for our students’ academic success,” said CSA
Fodrea principal Diane Clancy.
Teemant’s work at Meredith nicholson Elementary
is the result of an ongoing grant focused on ESL
student learning but used for all students. The U.S.
Department of Education (USDoE) awarded $1.9
million to the School of Education at IUpUI last year to
build on a previous five-year grant of $1.5 million the
USDoE granted in 2007.
After completing the first phase of the grant in 2011,
Meredith nicholson teacher Deb Eckler was sold on
the method. “It totally changed the way I teach—totally,”
she said. “And this is my 27th year of teaching.”
Danya greenburg, BS’09
Young teacher already
making an impression in
chicago-area school
Danya Greenberg, BS’09 with highest
distinction, earned a nomination for one of
the top teaching awards in the Chicago area
despite the fact she’s very early in her career.
Greenberg teaches first- through third-grade
special education at Libertyville (Ill.) Elementary
School. After completing just her third year
there, she was a finalist for the 2012 Golden
Apple Award for Excellence in Teaching given
to outstanding teachers in the Chicago area.
Greenberg teaches in the Elementary
Instructional Program, a special education
program she helped implement to engage
her students, in the district. She’s known for
creative ideas, including use of Promethean
Boards, iPods, and iPads. “I learned to take
those risks at the School of Education, where
now I’m comfortable with stepping outside the
box saying ‘let’s try a different way; let’s try
different resources,’” Greenberg said.
While at the School of Education, Greenberg
helped start an outreach program to promote
reading with early-grade students, an experience
she said has paid dividends because of
the opportunity for trial-and-error along with
the perseverence to succeed.” I won’t stop at
anything to get what’s best for these children,”
Greenberg said.

contributions
Deborah Sudbeck, BS’89
Alumna finds real ways
to reach students in the
virtual world
Longmont, Colo., teacher Deborah Sudbeck,
BS’89, was named Colorado’s 2012 “Online
Teacher of the Year.” Sudbeck teaches elementary
grades for the Colorado Virtual Academy
(COVA), a statewide online public school where
she has taught reading, writing, science, math,
art and history for the past seven years. Sudbeck
taught in brick-and-mortar public schools
in Indiana, Virginia and Colorado for 12 years
before becoming exclusively an online elementary
teacher.
The Colorado Department of Education honored
her for creativity in teaching, something
she said is important when trying to engage
young students for 30- to 45-minute online sessions.
“They have to be involved,” Sudbeck said.
“And they like to talk.”
She credits her success to a willingness to
take chances with technology which, she noted,
has particularly developed over the time she’s
been an online-only teacher. “Sometimes teachers
get afraid to be creative or think outside of
the box because they think of the chaos that
may ensue, and you kind of have to just go for
it,” she said.
Long before today’s technology developments,
Sudbeck said exposure to the latest
innovations and an attitude of experimentation
during her time at the IU School of Education
planted a seed. “I felt empowered by
the professors,” she said. “I felt like I could do
anything.”
A new ranking compiled by education researcher and
author Rick Hess and published on the Education Week
Web site placed two Indiana University School of Education
faculty in a listing of the top contributors to public
debate about education.
Jonathan Plucker, director of the Center for Evaluation
and Education Policy (CEEP) and a professor of educational
psychology and cognitive science, and Curt Bonk,
professor of instructional systems technology, educational
psychology and cognitive science and adjunct instructor
for the IU School of Informatics, made the inaugural
“Edu-Scholar Public Presence Rankings.”
Hess described the rankings as a way “to recognize
those university-based academics who are contributing
most substantially to public debates about schools and
schooling.” The scores measure the output of articles and
academic scholarship, book authorship and book success,
and the number of times scholars are cited or quoted on
the Web and in print media. Hess and research assistants
compiled a total score from Google Scholar citations,
the number of books authored and co-authored, and the
ranking of books on Amazon.com, as well as mentions in
Education Week and the Chronicle of Higher Education,
blogs, U.S. newspapers and the Congressional Record
during 2011.
Plucker, ranked 52nd on the list, scoring well in Google
Scholar, blog and newspaper mentions. A policy advisor
to educational leaders across the country, Plucker has
authored nearly 100 articles on education and has edited
four books. In 2010, the Neag School of Education at the
University of Connecticut named him an Outstanding
Higher Education Professional.
Bonk ranked 108th, scoring highest in Amazon.com
rankings, Google Scholar and blog mentions. He
authored The World Is Open: How Web Technology
Is Revolutionizing Education, a comprehensive look at
how Web technology is changing worldwide education.
A companion Web site, www.worldisopen.com, includes

Two SOE faculty awarded university-wide
distinguished teaching awards
Indiana University honored School of Education faculty
members Faridah Pawan and Heidi Ross with university-wide
teaching awards, elevating both to the rank of
Distinguished Professor.
Pawan, an associate professor in literacy, culture and
language education, received the President’s Award,
which recognizes outstanding teaching, research or
service.
Pawan has created two federally funded and three
state-funded programs to help Indiana classroom
teachers strengthen their knowledge base in teaching
English as a Second Language and to collaborate
in working with students whose first language is other
than English. During a recent sabbatical in Beijing,
Pawan worked with Chinese colleagues at two universities
in their professional development programs for
Chinese public school teachers who teach English as a
Foreign Language. Pawan also helped develop a customized
and hybrid master’s degree program for Peace
Corps volunteers teaching English overseas.
Ross, a professor of educational policy studies and
comparative education, received the John W. Ryan
Faridah Pawan
Heidi Ross
Award, honoring faculty members or librarians who
have made exceptional contributions to the university’s
international programs and studies. Ryan, who died in
August 2011, served as IU’s president from 1971–1987. He
was instrumental in fostering IU’s commitment to excellence
in international education.
Ross was the first director of the IU East Asian Studies
Center and co-director of the Australian National
University–Indiana University Pan–Asian Institute and
served as an integral member of the Indiana University
Bloomington International Studies Task Force. Since
becoming director of the East Asian Studies Center,
she has received an annual grant from the Freeman
Foundation to support her work as project director of
the National Consortium for Teaching about Asia, a
project designed to educate American middle and high
school teachers about East Asian studies. Additionally,
Ross has been instrumental on the advisory board of
the Confucius Institute in Indianapolis and assisted in
partnering the School of Education with Chinese and
Japanese schools to facilitate the Cultural Immersion
Projects.

Howard Templer, BS’06
Award-winning teacher
credits creativity to SOE
preparation
Students of Howard Templer, BS’06, rave about
his teaching techniques that make learning
come alive. In May 2011, Chicago Public Schools
(CPS) agreed and honored Templer, who
teaches at Braeside Elementary in Highland
Park, with the Golden Apple Award, the most
prestigious honor for teaching excellence in the
corporation. “Mr. T makes it come alive for us;
we don’t just read out loud,” a student told the
Highland Park Patch. “When he teaches it, we
always remember it. He makes it fun.”
Students particularly raved about a project
to make minerals in science class. “We put salt
in hot water with food coloring to make rocks,”
Templer said. He added that much of the creativity
that he brings to the classroom started
in a physics class for teachers at IU.
Templer wrote in his essay for the award that
the goal is to make the students responsible
for their learning. “At the end of the year, when
the students have taken control of their learning,
I am no longer the teacher—each student
becomes a teacher, and I am the facilitator,” he
wrote. “I sit back as they lead their own literature
circles and write their own books based
off of historical research. I sit back proud of the
tremendous growth they have made as learners
and problem solvers.”

$3.5 million grant helps IU center create
Afghan master’s degree program
The U.S. State Department awarded the IU Center for
Social Studies and International Education (CSSIE)
nearly $3.5 million to develop and implement a
master’s degree in English language teaching at Kabul
Education University. The $3,487,454 funds a threeyear
project directed by two IU School of Education
faculty members. Terry Mason, professor of curriculum
and instruction and director of CSSIE, and Mitzi
Lewison, professor of literacy, culture and language
education, have been involved in Afghan higher
education for years.
Mason said the new project will build on the previous
work, which established the first master’s degree
offering—in education—at Kabul Education University
and brought Afghan educators to IU for further study.
“Its intent is to train qualified English faculty members
for the numerous institutions of higher education
around the country,” he said. “It’s seen as an important
program for not just providing access to the
language itself, but also for affecting the way teaching
is carried out.”
The staff for the project is composed of IU faculty
and other scholars in language education. partners in
the program include the U.S. Embassy in Kabul and
the American University of Afghanistan.
CSSIE was a part of The Higher Education project
from 2006 through 2011—a consortium including IU,
the University of Massachusetts Amherst and the
Academy for Educational Development in Washington,
D.C. The project helped re-establish teacher education
programs in Afghan colleges and universities. From
2007 to 2009, a dozen teachers from Afghanistan
came to the IU School of Education to earn master’s
degrees. In March 2010, Mason and Lewison attended
graduation ceremonies for those teachers and others
earning their new credentials in a Kabul ceremony.
The successful track record has led to IU’s continued
involvement in Afghanistan education. “Afghan educators
have come here, earned degrees and returned to
Afghanistan. We’ve had ongoing connection to the
administration of the universities there and the Ministry
of Higher Education,” Mason said. “So, we’re looked
upon as a leading institution in Afghanistan in English
language education.”
“Its intent is to train qualified English
faculty members for the numerous
institutions of higher education
around the country. It’s seen as

Teaching, international relations part of IU’s
Turkish–Armenian Summer Teaching Institute
A group of 50 teachers—25 each
from Turkey and Armenia—spent
six weeks on the Indiana University
Bloomington campus in June
and July of 2011 as part of a U.S.
Embassy-sponsored program to
help the teachers learn new techniques
for the classroom and new
ideas for diplomacy. The Turkish–Armenian
Summer Teaching
Institute was a project of IU’s
Center for Social Studies and
International Education (CSSIE)
with the participation of IUpUI’S
Center for Urban and Multicultural
Education (CUME).
The institute was designed
to help teachers bring more
student-centered learning to their
classrooms. All participants were
middle and high school English
teachers in Armenia or Turkey.
While one of the institute’s goals
was to allow educators from
countries with a long history
of strained relations to learn more about each other,
program directors were careful not to make participants
feel as if there was a hidden agenda.
“We just hoped that they would learn to live together,
to communicate with one another and to appreciate
each other as they develop personal and professional
relationships,” said Terry Mason, CSSIE director and
professor of curriculum and instruction.
Turkey and Armenia have a centuries-old conflict and
have no formal diplomatic relationship. Within the walls
of Indiana University, representatives of the two nations
were more than diplomatic. “We started here as two
groups—a Turkish group and an Armenian group,” said
Turkish teacher Alper Etyemez. “now we have turned
into a single group. There is no Turkish group or Armenian
group; we are all together.”
IU successfully bid on the project that was sought by
the U.S. Embassies of Turkey and Armenia. The embassies
wanted a program that would show how current
approaches to English language teaching can be used to
develop critical thinking skills and would build tolerance
among adolescent students. After being awarded the
project, Mason, CSSIE Associate Director Arlene Benitez

participants

(above) Mason (right) with
participants in the turkish–

Institute; (left) some of the
institute participants
and Rob Helfenbein, associate professor of curriculum
studies at the IU School of Education at IUpUI, traveled
to both countries to get a better idea of the participants’
teaching environments.
“The project intentionally did a geographic distribution
of both countries,” Helfenbein said. “So, even
though two teachers are from Turkey, they didn’t know
each other.” He added that the distribution has resulted
in a range of teachers from a variety of school types in
both urban and rural settings as well as from different
cultural settings.
The teachers were selected for their willingness to
try new approaches in the classroom and openness to
learning about other cultures. Mason said the participants
who have come here certainly reflected that. “It
was immediately apparent that we were very lucky to
have people that had been screened and well-selected
to embrace the spirit of the project,” he said. “They
have endorsed our approach to teaching, for the most
part, and they have been extremely interested in finding
out about their counterparts from the other country.”

School of Education offers IU’s first
online doctoral program
lEaDIng InnovatIon
The Indiana Commission for Higher Education approved
a new Doctor of Education (EdD) in Instructional
Systems Technology (IST) from the IU School
of Education in summer 2011. The new program is
the first IU doctorate to be delivered entirely through
distance education technology.
The IST EdD online offers the same content as the
onsite degree program, but allows many more opportunities
for working professionals and others to earn
the degree.
The EdD is focused on applying theory to practice.
“The program will prepare people to go out into the
field,” said Ted Frick, chair and professor in IST. “They
could be in a variety of roles and settings—not just
K–12, but corporate, business and industry, government,
military, nonprofits, and schools and universities.
We expect our EdD graduates to be managers
and leaders to help organizations solve problems—
whether they’re instructional problems or human performance
problems where instruction is not needed.”
The department prepares practitioners and researchers
to build and test processes, products, systems
and services for use in education and workplace
settings. Elements of IST include analysis, design,
development, evaluation, and implementation and
management. Research crosses disciplines and
focuses on theories for instructional design and
workplace learning and performance improvement.
EdD students will apply these theories to solve
practical problems. They will learn research skills
to conduct needs analyses, to do formative evaluation
and usability testing, and to measure learning
achievement and improvement of human performance
on the job.
While all coursework hours will be online,
students must make at least three trips to
the IU Bloomington campus during their
program of study. Students must attend one of the
annual IST conferences that features presentations
about pertinent topics presented by students, faculty,
alumni and others in the field. They must also take
qualifying exams and conduct their dissertation
defense on campus. online students will also be
encouraged to attend meetings and conferences of
professional organizations within the IST discipline,
such as the Association for Educational Communications
and Technology and the International Society
for performance Improvement.
IU’s IST department can trace its history back to
the 1920s before joining the School of Education in
the 1940s. It is regarded as one of the world’s top
IST programs, with graduates serving in faculty and
professional roles across the world.
Frick said it is precisely because of the IST department’s
reputation and position as a leader in instructional
technology that offering the online doctorate
became so important. “We often
become the model for other
programs to emulate,” he said.
“Historically, we’ve been leaders
in the field, and we want to
be leaders here.”

“IUconnectED”
provides one-stop
resource for
online learning
In 2011, the Indiana University School of Education
launched IUconnectED (http://iuconnected.iu.edu/), a
new Web portal that conveniently coordinates access to
the School’s online learning programs. Through IUconnectED,
students can take a variety of courses to earn
credentials ranging from professional certificates to
master’s degrees and an online doctorate.
IUconnectED includes all IU School of Education
graduate-level courses and programs offered completely
online, including courses from both the Bloomington and
IUpUI campuses. The program is designed to serve practitioners
in a variety of education-related roles through
every stage of their careers. IUconnectED offers an opportunity
for students to sharpen their skills through professional
development coursework or take their careers
to the next level by earning a graduate degree.
“We are committed to providing the skills practitioners
need to effectively prepare learners for what they
will face today and in the future,” said Elizabeth Boling,
dean of graduate studies and professor of instructional
systems technology. “IUconnectED embodies the accessibility
that students need as they research their options
for education and career advancement.”
The entire online portfolio is designed to offer students
the interactive experience, flexible delivery and
challenging curriculum that will help them achieve their
goals. Students may choose from more than 90 courses,
five professional development programs and five master’s
degree programs in various disciplines. program
offerings include language education, special education,
instructional systems technology, elementary education
and secondary education. The EdD in instructional systems
technology is the latest program addition.
The School of Education is a leader in distance education.
The first online courses and degree programs began
in 1999. All of the programs are founded on rigorous
academic research and taught by experienced faculty.
The experience connects students as colleagues. “online
education creates a global learning environment in which
students collaborate with peers near and far,” Boling said.
“Students develop a network of colleagues whose diverse
backgrounds enhance the learning experience. These are
strong networks of students who have never met faceto-face.
They become trusted colleagues who continue
to support and challenge one another well beyond the
academic program.”

Collaboration
leads to teacher
effectiveness
evaluation model
Alumni Achievement
As a result of a new Indiana law, the Center on Education
and Lifelong Learning at Indiana University and the IU
School of Education at IUpUI collaborated to develop a
model for evaluating teacher effectiveness.
An initial group of 12 Indiana school districts has committed
to implementing the Indiana Teacher Appraisal and
Support System, or In-TASS, and will receive training and
support to develop their appraisal plans. The goal is to facilitate
the growth of all education professionals, enhance
the quality of classroom instruction and school system
supports, and improve student achievement.
The Evanston/Skokie, Ill., School District 65 professional
Appraisal System provided the framework for In-TASS.
The Evanston/Skokie model is one of five teacher evaluation
models compared in a recent policy brief from the
Center for Evaluation and Education policy at Indiana
University.
The brief, “Revamping the Teacher Evaluation process,”
offered information on Indiana’s new teacher evaluation
law and its implications. “Strengths of the District 65 model
are its clear and simple synthesis of inputs and outputs,
and its automatic due process procedures,” the authors
of the CEEp report wrote, further noting that “these elements
are absent from many of the other models included
in this brief.”
The goal is to facilitate the growth of
all education professionals, enhance
the quality of classroom instruction
and school system supports, and
improve student achievement.

the iu School of education to enter the teaching
profession. “i’m just a teacher who strives to do,
give and be my best for the students i’m fortunate
to teach,” Odom said.
“i remember Jamil as a confident, thoughtful
and hard-working graduate student who became
a very caring and nurturing teacher,” said Professor
emeritus Diana lambdin, who directed the
elementary transition-to-teaching (t2t) Program
that Odom completed. “So, i was certainly
not surprised to hear of his award. Jamil stands
out in my mind as an outstanding role model for
young children.”
Odom said he wasn’t happy in a career not
connected to education and decided to leave a
comfortable job to become a teacher. he said
the iu School of education helped make the
transition easier as well as provided the encouragement
to infuse creativity in his teaching.
“the combination of the people i was learning
alongside with and the people who were teaching
made this ultimate journey of getting to my
classroom easier.”

Year award for her creativity and energetic style
of teaching. Armed with degrees in elementary
education and language education, Park is a reading

reading goals for her students and creating data
portfolios to chart their growth. the recipient of a
2011 lilly teacher creativity Fellowship grant, Park
tries to find ways to capture her students’ imaginations.
“i’m always looking for ways to ‘hook’
their memories,” she said.
Park enjoys the way middle school teaching
allows for some “crazy” methods to make an
impression. “i really feel like i’m where i’m truly
called to be.”
The School of Education in Bloomington ranked highly
in the first-ever U.S. News & World Report ranking of
top online graduate education degree programs. More
than 160 institutions offering online graduate degree
programs in education participated. The IU School of
Education ranked in the upper tier in each of the four
categories.
The IU School of Education ranked highest in the
category of “Admissions Selectivity” (15th), reflecting
the program’s ability to attract high-achieving students
from around the world. Under the methodology used by
U.S. News, the IU School of Education scored 82.3 out
of a possible 100 points in this category, compiled by
measuring entering student GpA and GRE scores, the
acceptance rate for the program, as well as the standardized
test and essay required for program application. The
School of Education also ranked highly in “Student Services
and Technology” (30th) due largely to a variety of
technologies used to create interactive learning environments
and provide support to online students.
The School of Education also placed in the upper tier
for the categories of “Faculty Credentials and Training”
(43rd) and “Teaching practices and Student Engagement”
(50th).

New partnerships
create new degrees
leading innovation
Indiana University’s Kelley School of Business and the IU
School of Education have launched a collaborative
program to prepare school leaders equipped with the
latest management and leadership skills.
The new IU Executive EdD program allows IU School of
Education students—often planning for careers as superintendents
and other administrative education roles—to
earn a master’s degree in strategic management at the
Kelley School while earning an EdD in Educational Leadership.
The program substantially reduces the time and cost
to complete both the master’s and EdD degrees.
The program coursework is developed and delivered
by faculty members recognized nationally and internationally
for scholarship and teaching in business management
and educational leadership and policy. It will prepare
innovative and transformative school leaders for administrative
and policymaking roles in the state and the nation.
Coursework integrates curriculum and instructional leadership,
law, politics and policy, ethics and entrepreneurship,
strategic planning and organizational design, and
research methodologies.
Beginning in the fall 2012 semester, the Indiana
University Maurer School of Law will offer an education
policy minor as part of its regular JD program.
Coursework in education policy will come from the
IU School of Education. To earn a JD with an education
policy minor, law students will complete 12 credits at the
IU School of Education.
The education policy minor idea grew from a steady
stream of law students seeking education policy credits
and some pursuing education policy doctorate degrees
after finishing law school.
“There are a healthy number of students in the law
school who have been former teachers, or if they haven’t,
are just interested in education policy,” said Suzanne
Eckes, associate professor in educational leadership and
policy studies at the IU School of Education. Eckes is also
an attorney and former classroom teacher. She teaches
several education-law-related courses and is a co-author
of “Principals Teaching the Law: 10 Legal Lessons Your
Teachers Must Know.”
A new partnership of the Indiana University School of
Education and the Peace Corps will help fill a global
need for well-prepared teachers of English as a Foreign
and/or Second Language (EFL/ESL) while allowing the
Peace Corps experience to count toward a master’s
degree.
In the Master’s International program, a Peace Corps
service assignment counts for 6 graduate credits toward a
master’s degree from the Department of Literacy, Culture
and Language Education at the School of Education.
The master’s program emphasizes EFL/ESL teaching,
meeting a surging worldwide demand. Faridah Pawan associate
professor in Literacy, Culture and Language Education,
said demand has recently tripled and grows yearly.
Classes for the Master’s International are available on
campus and online. Students must apply for admission
into the Peace Corps to be eligible for the MI graduate
program. However, students can apply for the MI separately
and at any time before or while they are applying
for the Peace Corps.

Involvement
IU School of Education at IUPUI
part of newly funded regional community
schools center
School of Education faculty member Monica Medina works with pre-service teachers at George Washington Community High School.
IUPUI established a new regional Center for University-
Assisted Community Schools in Indianapolis. The project
involves the IUPUI Center for Service and Learning with
collaborative facilitators, including Monica Medina of the
Center for Urban and Multicultural Education (CUME) in
the IU School of Education and a faculty member in teacher
education. The IUPUI-based center will assist universities
and community schools in Indiana, Michigan, Ohio,
Kentucky and Illinois with implementation of universityassisted
community schools strategies.
University-assisted community schools draw upon
higher education to assist them as service support centers
for youth, their families and community members. Public
community schools are neighborhood “hubs” where partners
develop collaborative solutions to local learning and
youth development barriers.
As a collaborating facilitator for the new center, Medina
will join Jim Grim of the Mary Rigg Neighborhood Center,
the lead partner for the George Washington Community
High School (GWCHS) initiative in Indianapolis, and Starla
Officer of the Office of Neighborhood Partnerships in the
Center for Service and Learning. CUME is a strong collaborator
with George Washington Community High School.
Medina oversees an early field experience for teacher
education majors. As many as 60 student interns work
in the schools for 14 weeks each semester. GWCHS reopened
in 2000 with the help of 17 Indianapolis agencies.
The Coalition for Community Schools honored GWCHS
with the first National Community School Award in 2006.
“Our primary philosophy at GWCHS focuses on collaboration
for mutual benefit so our work focuses on developing
a win-win collaboration, which I believe is the hallmark
of our relationship,” Medina said.
“This award represents recognition of our longstanding
partnership with GW and area community centers and
advances our collaborative work to develop full-service
community schools,” said Pat Rogan, executive associate
dean of the School of Education.

Equity Assistance
Center opens at IU
School of Education
at IUpUI
Alumni Achievement
The Indiana University School of Education at IUpUI
received a $2.2 million federal grant in 2011 to develop a
regional Equity Assistance Center (EAC) called “The Great
Lakes Equity Center.” The center will provide schools
and communities technical assistance in the areas of civil
rights, equity and access, and school reform. The U.S. Department
of Education awarded support for the three-year
project to principal investigator Kathleen King Thorius,
assistant professor of special education at the School of
Education, and co-investigators Brendan Maxcy, associate
professor of educational leadership and policy studies
(ELpS), and Thu Suong Thi nguyen, assistant professor in
ELpS.
The grant is part of the department’s initiatives to support
elementary and secondary education under Title IV
of the 1964 Civil Rights Act. The funds support civil rights
training and advisory services for schools and communities
addressing equity and access issues in public education.
Ten regional EACs are funded across the nation to
ensure all children, regardless of race, gender or national
origin, have equal access to quality education and opportunities
to meet high academic standards in reading, math
and other core subject areas.
The Region V EAC serves Illinois, Indiana, Michigan,
Minnesota, ohio and Wisconsin. Like all EACs, the Great
Lakes Equity Center at IUpUI serves as a resource to help
prevent discrimination, exclusion or denial of opportunity
on the basis of race, sex or national origin through
discriminatory activities that may include inequitable opportunities
to learn, harassment, segregation and denial of
language services.
“Schools engaged in equity work need to critique and
transform normative assumptions about race, class, gender,
language, national origin and ability and focus on empowering
and educating all students,” King Thorius said.
“This kind of work must be transformative to disrupt and
eliminate systemic contributors to inequity. We are thrilled
by this opportunity to partner with schools and communities
seeking to ensure equitable education opportunities
are available and accessible for all children.”
Stacy Mccormack, BS’99
chemistry education
teacher honored in
state, nationally
Stacy mccormack, BS’99, has received multiple
top honors for her teaching at Penn high
School in mishawaka. Previously named the
2011 indiana teacher of the Year, mccormack
was recently named indiana’s science teaching
recipient of the 2012 Presidential Award
for excellence in mathematics and Science
teaching, the highest recognition a K–12
mathematics or science teacher may receive
for outstanding teaching in the united States.
She was also named an iu School of education
Armstrong teacher educator.
“it takes a special person to be a teacher,
and it is not a job that just anyone can perform
well,” mccormack said. “it’s important to
seek ways to be exceptional in an environment
where ‘standard’ is the norm.”
As an Armstrong teacher educator,
mccormack has shared what she’s learned
in the classroom since earning her chemistry
education degree at iu. to future teachers,
she has a challenge. “You hold perhaps the
greatest role in a child’s life. never forget the
tremendous impact you make each day. Stand
tall, walk proud and teach your heart out.”

Financial Summary
Bloomington and Indianapolis Campuses
The Indiana University School of Education strives to be
responsible stewards of its resources, particularly in times when
such fiscal responsibility is vital. In recent years, state support of
the School has decreased—from more than 26% four years ago
to just over 18% in 2008–2009. That makes income through gifts,
endowments and other sources of funding critically important
to ensure the internationally recognized quality of the School’s
education, student support and faculty research.
