Company Description:
About UsFounded in 2009, Teachers College of San Joaquin (TCSJ) is the first WASC accredited institution to be housed within a county office of education. The San Joaquin County Office of Education (SJCOE) in Stockton, CA supports and partners with TCSJ to offer graduate level programs. Teaching and Administrative Service Credentials, Induction (BTSA), Masters in Education and non-degree programs provide a variety of options for those who wish to pursue a career in the field of education.
Our Mission
To develop a workforce of teachers and school leaders who are comfortable with collaboration, understand the need to prepare students for both work and higher education and have the skills to develop, implement and sustain innovative educational ideas.
TCSJ exemplifies the notion of learning opportunities that are rigorous, provide relevance, are relationship-driven and incorporate reflection for professional growth.
Our Focus
TCSJ focuses on the "four R's" of Rigor, Relevance, Relationship, and Reflection. These apply both to the way in which we design curriculum and provide service to TCSJ students, as well as what we want our students to apply to their own work as a result of their study here at Teachers College of San Joaquin.
Rigor
Our students have the full opportunities of a Credential and Masters Program. This includes thorough attention to the professional literature, understanding of research and research methodology, development of inquiry and application skills, and meaningful discourse and exposure to new ideas, including confronting their own prior assumptions.
Courses have clear objectives and corresponding assignments. Assessments are fair, authentic (grounded in practice whenever possible), and consistent across instructors. A rigorous curriculum does not mean a curriculum with no supports. Both full and part time faculty are available to students who need additional assistance or who have unique needs that require individualized attention.
Relevance
Everything that happens within TCSJ is tied to our mission and is relevant to your practice as an educator. This applies to the way in which we design curriculum and provide service to TCSJ students, as well as what we want our students to apply to their own work as a result of their study here at Teachers College of San Joaquin.
Relationships
We value relationships between people, within the college, with school districts, and between faculty. We pay attention to and support individual student goals. In addition to relationships between people, the TCSJ curriculum is purposefully designed to bring together disciplines that are traditionally kept separate in our schools. Career and Technical Education (formerly known as vocational education) teachers and single subject teachers collaborate with each other and with elementary teachers. Within our coursework, goals and objectives attend to the relationship between theory and practice.
Reflection
Both students and faculty engage in ongoing reflection. They are consistently asked to examine their own practice, question prior assumptions, and build new ideas as a result of that reflective process. Students in all courses are provided with multiple opportunities to apply what they learn, be observed in that application, and reflect on the outcomes with other students and faculty.
