Alabama Department of Education EDUCATION RESEARCH Education Research is charged with producing the grading scales for the State Superintendent's Report Card and assisting elements of the State Department of Education with technical issues related to testing, evaluation, and professional development. In addition, the section conducts research for the State Superintendent of Education in areas such as school finance, equity and adequacy issues, and cost of public education, state rankings, and teacher salary rankings relative to the nation and other southeastern states. The section also provides analytic and statistical support for various programs (i.e. special education issues) and technical method assistance to local educational agencies. DIRECTOR- CLASSROOM IMPROVEMENT/TEAM COORDINATION The Classroom Improvement Section is responsible for the development and implementation of the minimum curriculum content, standards, and course design for students in the public schools, Grades K-12. It is also responsible for instructional support programs such as textbook selection, scholarship programs, and counseling and guidance services. In addition, content specialists assist local systems with instructional and administrative strategies to enhance effective learning. The state-sponsored assessment program, designed to measure the effectiveness of the implementation of instruction and curriculum is also developed and implemented through this section. Together, all of the areas within this section form the basis of the implementation of the accountability law as defined by the Alabama Legislature. SCHOOL ASSISTANCE TEAMS As recommended by the 21st Century Report, the state superintendent organized the State Department of Education staff into School Assistance Teams. The goal of this organization is to maximize Local Education Agency (LEA) support services. The 10 cross-functional teams have common assignments and work to provide more efficient service and assistance to the Local Education Agencies. The creation of School Assistance Teams allows the maximization of talent, knowledge, and expertise of team members to connect LEAs with the needed resources and support to implement the goals of the State Board of Education. It also represents a shift from the SDE regulatory institution with fragmented delivery of services and support to that of a resource and partner to help LEAs improve student achievement and meet local and state goals. The teams seek to provide timely and responsive assistance upon request by the LEAs. Team members work with local school systems to identify and prioritize local system needs, and then to provide a more comprehensive range of services. The new structure provides a steady flow of information from local systems to the state superintendent on each team’s work with local systems, enabling further planning by the SDE to continue providing beneficial assistance. DIRECTOR- CAREER/TECHNICAL EDUCATION The Career/Technical Education Section is responsible for facilitating career/technical education programming at the state and federal level in all local education agencies. Staff serve in a technical assistance capacity to deliver state-ofthe-art and articulated career/technical and academic education. The section supports the goals of the State Board of Education by performing duties as assigned through the Division of Instructional Services. DIRECTOR- TEACHER EDUCATION AND CERTIFICATION The Teacher Education and Certification Section is responsible for ensuring that colleges and universities meet the continuously updated teacher education program approval standards adopted by the State Board of Education (SBE). Persons who meet SBE test requirements, complete approved programs, and meet background clearance requirements are eligible for certification. Certificates are also awarded to persons who meet alternative route criteria adopted by the SBE. Assistance is provided to persons who are considering education as a career, to members of the U.S. military who wish to pursue a second career in teaching, to students enrolled in teacher education programs, to local education agencies in need of personnel, and to individuals seeking employment. 54
