Open Position
Research Associate for Teacher Quality

As a consortium of The University of Houston System, The Texas A&M University System, The Texas State University System, and The University of Texas System, CREATE works to provide opportunities for member institutions and the profession at large to systematically explore quality and effectiveness issues related to teacher preparation, retention, and student achievement.

CREATE is currently accepting applications for the 2010-2011 cohort of PUBLIC SCHOOL RESEARCH SCHOLARS. Program activities enable school professionals enrolled in doctoral studies within a CREATE university to design and complete doctoral research related to teacher quality and effectiveness that fulfills requirements of their doctoral program and provides meaningful and important findings to member school districts. See Brochure.

Of the 79,000 undergraduates who received baccalaureate degrees in 2007-2008, CREATE member institutions recommended 12 percent of their undergraduates for teacher certification.

Six member institutions reported 25 percent or more of their undergraduates were recommended for teacher certification. See Table.
