Tuesday, April 28th, 2009 Sulzberger Hall North Tower, 5pm - 7pm CETE: The Consortium for Excellence in Teacher Education Barnard is a member of CETE, an association of teacher education programs in selective, private liberal arts colleges and universities. CETE institutions share a commitment to a humanistic, inquiry-oriented approach to teacher education. Many CETE institutions also share the working assumption that "small is beautiful" especially in the development and nurturance of a community of reflective practitioners. Because CETE members advocate high "standards without standardization," we endorse multiple pathways to teacher preparation, and each of our institutions has a distinctive thematic emphasis. Members of CETE include Brown, Harvard, Princeton, Wellesley, Bates, Bryn Mawr and Haverford, Middlebury, Smith, Wheaton, Bowdoin, Connecticut, Mount Holyoke, Swarthmore, Yale, Brandeis, Darthmouth, UPENN and Vassar.
