Consequently, the University System of Georgia (USG) remains committed to meeting \n \n80% of the State's need for teachers. \n \nUSG Teacher Production \n \n5000 \n \n4871 5056 4573 \n \n4236 \n \n4000 3822 \n \nThere are 24 USG institutions that work to meet this goal. In 2011, those colleges and universities prepared 5,056 teachers, which is nearly 25% more teachers than in 2007. Five institutions prepared more than half of that total \n \n(see table below). \n \n3000 \n \nWhile most of these teachers are prepared \n \n2000 \n \nthrough traditional baccalaureate degree programs, about 30% seek preparation \n \nthrough a non-traditional route such as a \n \n1000 \n \ncertification-only program or a Master's of Arts \n \nin Teaching (MAT). \n \n0 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 \n \nFurther, the USG remains committed to diversification of the teaching workforce, and \n \nUSG institutions continue to increase the number of non-white teachers prepared. In 2011, \n \nnon-white teachers comprised nearly 25% of the total number of teachers. While all USG \n \ninstitutions are a part of this success, there are several institutions that contribute significantly to \n \nthese results (see table below). \n \nUSG's five largest producers of teachers \n \nInstitution \n \nProduction \n \nUniversity of Georgia \n \n746 \n \nKennesaw State University \n \n690 \n \nGeorgia State University \n \n636 \n \nUniversity of West Georgia 424 \n \nValdosta State University Total \n \n407 2903 \n \nUSG instituions contributing significantly to a more diverse teaching workforce \n \nInstitution \n \n2011 non-white % of teachers \n \nFort Valley State University \n \n100 \n \nAlbany State University \n \n84 \n \nClayton State University \n \n68 \n \nGeorgia State University \n \n45 \n \nWhile the USG is committed to preparing effective teachers, it is also committed to preparing teachers for the geographic regions and disciplines that need them most. Thus, the USG strategically approved teacher preparation at five new institutions in the last few years. These institutions have begun producing graduates only recently or will begin to produce teachers shortly and include Macon State College, Middle Georgia College, Georgia Gwinnett College, Savannah State University, and Southern Polytechnic State University. \n \n With respect to teacher production by disciplinary area, trends have been steady for the last few years with approximately one-third of graduates completing early childhood degrees, about one-quarter in middle grades, and 10% in special education. \n \nMajor Areas of Teacher Preparation \n \nThe \"All Others\" category includes \n \nstudents completing degrees to teach in a variety of disciplines including the secondary disciplines and disciplines \n \nAll Others 33% \n \nEarly Childhood \n35% \n \nin which teachers are certified to teach \n \nacross all grades (e.g., kindergarten \n \nthrough twelfth grade) and include \n \ndisciplines in foreign languages, art, and music. \nIn the areas of the STEM disciplines, \n \nSpecial Education \n10% \n \nMiddle Grades (4-8) \n22% \n \nthe USG has made significant \n \nprogress with increasing the number of \n \nteachers prepared to teach math and science in middle and high school. To become a high \n \nschool teacher at a USG institution, students must seek a BA or BS degree in a discipline (e.g., \n \nB.S. in Chemistry). In 2011, 185 secondary math and 146 secondary science teachers were \n \nprepared. At the middle school level, all \n \n2011 Secondary STEM Teachers \n \nstudents must prepare to teach in at least two areas (language arts, social science, \n \n100% \n \n14 \n \n90% \n \n21 \n \n39 80% \n \nHigh School Earth/Space, Health, and Physics \n \nmath, science, or reading). In 2011, there were approximately 600 middle grades teachers prepared in 1,259 areas of certification including 317 in math and 280 in science. Overall about 47% of all \n \nHigh School \n \nmiddle grades certifications were in math \n \n70% 72 \n \nBroadfield Science \n \nand/or science. \n \n60% \n \nSince 2007, the USG has increased by \n \nHigh School \n \none-third the number of students prepared \n \n50% \n \nChemistry \n \nto teach in math and science disciplines. \n \n40% \n \n30% \n \n185 \n \n20% \n \n10% \n \n0% Secondary STEM \n \nHigh School Biology \nHigh School Math \n \nThe USG continues to build capacity in the area of teacher production and is planning for the future so that it can meet the demands of Georgia's teacher workforce. With careful attention to teacher production and the continuous improvement of academic programs, the USG is committed to preparing teachers who can effectively help students achieve. \n \nFebruary 16, 2012 For more information about teacher preparation, contact angela.coleman@usg.edu \n \n "}],"pages":{"current_page":1,"next_page":null,"prev_page":null,"total_pages":1,"limit_value":10,"offset_value":0,"total_count":1,"first_page?":true,"last_page?":true},"facets":[{"name":"type_facet","items":[{"value":"Text","hits":1}],"options":{"sort":"count","limit":16,"offset":0,"prefix":null}},{"name":"creator_facet","items":[{"value":"Georgia.
