This study examined the hypothesis that postsecondary schools of education are sufficiently preparing regular education students to work in integrated or mainstreamed classroom settings. Chairpersons of 58 such programs in New York State were queried about their programs' accreditation, coursework, and field experience requirements relevant to mainstreaming practices. Results indicated that only a minority of these programs were accredited by the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education, offered dual certification in regular and special education, or required training in collaborative teaching and education.

Current Emphasis

The data from the first mathematics survey of the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) showed a mixed picture of strengths and weaknesses in our mathematics programs. An examination of the assessment data suggests that the current emphasis on arithmetic skills in undergraduate and graduate teacher education should be examined to find a proper balance between skill and understanding, as well as between arithmetic s kills and skills in measurement and geometry.

Recent Meeting

At the recent meeting of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics held in New York City,* one elementary school panel dealt with the problem of providing better instruction in mathematics to gifted students. Thus far, most attempts to meet the needs of gifted students have depended upon horizontal enrichment. A difficulty has been that most elementary teachers lack sufficient knowledge of mathematics to make enrichment programs successful. The mathematics preparation of elementary school teachers must be improved.
