2021-2022 Impact Measures

Note: The Ohio Departments of Education and Higher Education are currently experiencing data issues related to the annual Educator Preparation Performance Report (EPPR) . The data presented herein are what we were most recently provided by the State as of the CAEP Annual Report submission deadline of 4/30/2023. Several Ohio EPPs have reported potential data errors to ODE/ODHE, which are currently investigating. We believe our performance report may contain such inaccuracies. When updated or corrected data become available, we will update the data tables for this page, upload a new PDF report, and note when such changes were made.

1. Completer effectiveness and impact on P-12 learning and development (Component R1.4).

Completer Effectiveness

Ohio Teacher Evaluation System (OTES) Data

OTES is the primary source of data we use to evaluate program impact and to assess completer effectiveness. This research-based educator evaluation tool was developed by educators from diverse fields and is used by Ohio school districts to evaluate teacher performance.

Associated Teacher Evaluation Classifications*
Initial Licensure Effective Year	# Accomplished	# Skilled	# Developing	# Ineffective
2018	22	55	N<10	N<10
2019	24	64	N<10	N<10
2020	15	61	N<10	N<10
2021	N<10	34	N<10	N<10

Value-Added Measures

Value-Added data are a subset of data related to student growth from OTES. Value-added data only cover select content areas and age bands.

2022 Value-Added Data (PDF)*†

*Value-Added Data were not collected by the state for 2020. For historical value-added data, see KSU's 2019 CAEP Annual Report.
†Beginning in the 2022 reporting year, the Ohio Department of Education has shifted the scaling on this metric to a three-color system, consisting of evidence of 'lesser than expected growth', 'expected growth', and 'greater than expected growth.' This change in scaling will affect the ability for longitudinal comparison.

2. Satisfaction of employers and stakeholder involvement (Components R4.2; R5.3; R4.1).

Satisfaction of Employers

Employer Survey

Employer Survey Results (PDF)

Kent State University’s Research and Evaluation Bureau conducted a phone survey with area administrators about their satisfaction with the preparation of our graduates. The survey was last conducted November 2020 - February 2021; we plan to administer the survey every three years to avoid overburdening our partners. The survey's next administration is scheduled for Fall 2023.

Stakeholder Involvement

Partner Focus Groups

Partner Focus Group Results (PDF)

See pages 6-7 for focus groups conducted in the 2021-2022 academic year.

Clinical Partner Survey

Clinical Partner Survey Results (PDF)

The Clinical Experience Advisory Committee (CEAC) survey was last conducted in 2019. We plan to re-administer this survey periodically to avoid overburdening our partners; data from the Fall 2022 administration of the survey will be available with KSU's 2022-2023 CAEP Annual Report published in Spring 2024.

3. Candidate competency at program completion (Components R3.3; R3.4).

Ohio Assessments for Educators

The Ohio Assessments for Educators (OAE) program assesses the content-area and professional (pedagogical) knowledge of candidates who are seeking initial Ohio educator licensure or adding a new licensure area. The assessments are aligned with Ohio's Learning Standards. Ohio licensure candidates are required to successfully complete only ONE assessment of professional (pedagogical) knowledge for their first license. The addition of other licensure areas or endorsements will require only successful completion of the associated content-area assessment. For more information see, OAE Requirements by Licensure Area & Grade Level.

OAE Summary Pass Rates
Group	Number taking tests	Number passing tests	Pass Rate (%)
All program completers, 2020-21	358	326	91
All program completers, 2019-20	288	258	90
All program completers, 2018-19	375	363	97
All program completers, 2017-18	340	322	95

4. Ability of completers to be hired in education positions for which they have prepared.

Employment Data

Kent State University is currently working with a vendor to assist in identification of post-program employment in educational settings; data have been collected for three semesters’ worth of graduates, but response rates are so low they are not interpretable. We do not have enough data to provide for review at this time, but anticipate being able to do so in 2024.

Completer Persistence in Employment

For information about the program, see Ohio Resident Educator Program Overview.

Program Completer Persistence in the Ohio Teacher Residency Program*
Initial Licensure Effective Year	Residency Year 1			Residency Year 2			Residency Year 3			Residency Year 4
	Entering	Persisting		Entering	Persisting		Entering	Persisting		Entering	Persisting
2018	12	13	108.3%	29	28	96.6%	77	76	98.7%	112	111	99.1%
2019	42	41	97.6%	70	69	98.6%	127	126	99.2%	N/A	N/A	N/A
2020	118	119	100.8%	109	107	98.2	N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A
2021	115	112	97.4%	N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A

Though the above data do not directly demonstrate the ability of our program completers to be hired, it does indicate that when hired, our graduates persist in Ohio's teacher residency program at high rates. Therefore, we understand this to be indirect evidence of this measure, as program completers are able to maintain employment in the education position(s) for which they have been prepared.
