Teacher Quality Partnership Grants. Title II News You Can Use
Office of Postsecondary Education, US Department of Education
Title II of the "Higher Education Act of 1965" ("HEA"), as amended in 2008 by the "Higher Education Opportunity Act," requires states to report annually on key elements of their teacher preparation programs and requirements for initial teacher credentialing, kindergarten through 12th grade. "Title II News You Can Use" is a series of issue briefs on key data collected through the Title II "HEA" data collection. This issue brief provides information on the characteristics of Teacher Quality Partnership (TPQ) grants. Highlighted findings include: (1) 2014 TQP grants primarily focus on science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education; (2) Teacher preparation programs with TQP grants enroll higher proportions of men and minorities than programs without grants; and (3) Programs with TQP grants required longer student teaching experiences than programs without grants.
