Guam § 18601 - Legislative Findings and Intent.
Full text of Guam Guam Code Annotated § 18601 — Legislative Findings and Intent., with citation guidance and answers to common questions.
§ 18601. Legislative Findings and Intent.
I Liheslaturan Guåhan finds that there are benefits to the Department of
Education if educator recertification courses are targeted to improve the
educator’s teaching methods, language arts and mathematics skills,
knowledge of the specific subject matter being taught, ability to use
computers and the internet, and to address the educational requirements for
special needs students.
I Liheslatura further finds that the recertification process for educators
employed by the Department of Education requires them to periodically
complete college level courses at their own personal expense. The policy is
silent, however, on choice and subject matter of such courses and therefore
may result in educators completing courses that would not improve their
effectiveness.
I Liheslatura intends to support educator recertification by offering an
option that would provide full financial support for a structured curriculum,
via the Dr. Antonio C. Yamashita Educator Corps, designed to improve
teaching methods, increase proficiency in language arts and mathematics,
increase proficiency in the teaching subject area, increase proficiency in the
use of computers and the internet, and to address the educational
requirements of special needs students.
