Report: California's teaching candidates may be missing key math training
Briefly

A recent report by the National Council on Teacher Quality criticized the effectiveness of California's teacher preparation programs, particularly in training elementary school math teachers. The report called out Cal State Monterey Bay and other California State Universities for their inefficacy. In response, the CSU has rejected the report's methodology, claiming it relies on narrow and flawed analysis rather than in-depth discussions with program stakeholders. This highlights ongoing concerns regarding teacher training quality and the support new educators receive in schools.
The CSU, which trains the majority of the state's teachers, has dismissed the report's methodology and findings, asserting that it relies on flawed review processes.
The California State University rejects the recent grading from the National Council on Teacher Quality about our high-quality teacher training programs, emphasizing a broader evaluation need.
