Teacher Retention . . .the studies provide empirical support for the claim that assistance for new teachers and, in particular, mentoring programs have a positive impact on teachers and their retention. Richard IRngersoll and Jeffrey M. Kralik The Impact of Mentoring on Teacher Retention: What the Research Says Research Review, 2004 18
Secondary Induction Goals Further develop and apply knowledge and skills that improve teaching and student learning Provide support and guidance Build upon professional learning and practices established in pre-induction experiences Provide access to a professional learning community to address current challenges and needs Foster leadership skills and self-directed learning Allows Candidates to be recommended for a Clear General Ed or Ed Specialist Credential 19

What it is and what its not Induction IS Induction IS NOT 1. 2. Aligned to Commission requirements 1. Required by CTC to clear a credential Something we do to teachers, but for teachers 2. Evaluative/only support 3. One size fits all- The ILP is about YOU & Induction Program Standards. 3. A confidential relationship between Candidate & Mentor 21
CSTP and the CTP The California Standards for the Teaching Profession (CSTPs) are in levels in the Continuum of Teaching Practice (CTPs) Induction Programs support candidate development and growth in the professional standards, leading to a demonstration of readiness for a clear credential as established through professional goal setting and refined within an Individualized Induction Plan (ILP) 23
Individualized Induction Plan=IIP This is the of your professional learning 24
REFLECTION ON GROWTH GOAL AND ACTION PLAN As a result of this inquiry process, what was the impact on instructional practices and student learning? With your Mentor, discuss evidence and mark relevant CSTPs on the Continuum of Teaching Practice. Discuss your next steps with your Mentor: 1. Will you continue to explore your current goal? Why or why not? 2. Determine next steps in the revision of the goal or the creation of a new goal. Candidates, mentors and administrators may determine if more than one goal is appropriate or if an additional goal will be added during the year. Please copy and paste the above Goal #1 tables to add additional goals 25
