| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to clarify the structure of accountability system for teacher preparation programs in the US. At first I pointed out the influence of federal government on state approval system for teacher preparation programs through Higher Education Act and Race to the Top program. Then, in this study, the system in Louisiana and Vermont were analyzed. In Louisiana, value-added assessment, which linked the results of student test scores to teachers performance, was one of the important indicators of accountability system. Meanwhile, in Vermont the portfolio made by each student in teacher preparation programs was used as showing learning outcome in accountability system.
