The College of Education (COE) at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa was facing a challenge of developing a shared goal for program improvement across the college’s teacher preparation programs. This poster summarizes the COE’s process of improvement, provides examples of professional dispositions comparison, critical action items, and identifies main insights gained through the assessment process. Within the framework of the principles of improvement science, we implemented a process of disciplined inquiry to examine the variances and outcomes between COE teacher preparation programs.
