College. Employers of LaGrange College graduates are also contacted and asked to complete a brief survey for each LC graduate whom they supervise. The survey based on the Georgia Framework Domains asks employers to rate candidates on job performance. POLICY FOR REMEDIATION OF INAPPROPRIATE DISPOSITIONS AND/OR PERFORMANCE Dispositions INADEQUATE Because appropriate dispositions enhance teaching and learning, the Department of Education believes that candidates should project positive and productive attitudes toward students, colleagues, and professors. The term ―appropriate dispositions‖ refers to positive attitudes, respect for the diverse characteristics of others, and taking grievances to the appropriate person in a professional manner. In the pursuit of knowledge of learning, childhood, and society, appropriate dispositions reflect the teachers‘ abiding respect for the intellectual challenges set before them by their professors. Teachers are committed intellectuals who value rigorous inquiry, critique, and informed skepticism as ways to expand their ethical, cultural, and intellectual universes. To engage in professional exchanges, committed teachers must demonstrate constructive dispositions at all times. If a classroom professor observes or becomes aware of inappropriate dispositions, then she or he will issue a written warning to the student. Upon the second time, the student will be required to attend a hearing of the Department of Education faculty for possible disciplinary action. At the discretion of the faculty, disciplinary action may result in a reduction in grade or, in severe situations, expulsion from the program. Appropriate dispositions are also expected and assessed during field and clinical experiences. Performance Candidates who exhibit poor content knowledge, content pedagogical knowledge, or professional skills and/or who fail to demonstrate a positive effect on student learning based on specific criteria stated in the Field Experiences Handbook (FEH) may be required to complete a remedial Professional Development Plan (PDP). Dismissal from the program is possible if the candidate fails to meet the minimum scores on the PDP. Specific procedures, instruments, and scoring criteria used to assess dispositions and performance are described in the FEH. GRANTS AND SCHOLARSHIPS Qualified Early Childhood Education and BA/MAT Education candidates may be eligible for TEACH grants. See ―General Grants and Scholarships‖ in the Financial Aid portion of this Bulletin for details. COMBINED B.A. AND M.A.T PROGRAM OF STUDY Undergraduate students who meet the admission requirements for the M.A.T (passing GACE Basic Skills or a combined SAT score of more than 1000) and those who have a GPA of 3.0 or higher in their undergraduate studies have the opportunity to participate in a combined B.A. and M.A.T. program of study after the completion of 90 semester hours.
