Goals and Standards for English Majors

The Department of English considers the goals and standards established by many major accrediting bodies as it assesses and revises the courses our majors take.  Currently, the standards we use are as follows:

• The Undergraduate Program Goals
• The Undergraduate Program Goals for the English Teacher Certification Track
• The Graduate Program Goals

Additional Resources

• The Conceptual Framework for Teacher Education (Richard W. Riley College of Education)
• National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE)
• Council for the Accreditation of Educator Preparation (CAEP)

If you have questions about these goals and standards, please contact Dr. Amanda Hiner, Chair.
