    Admissions Dispositions Evaluation (ECTY)

  • The survey below describe the qualities Park University's School of Education seeks in candidates and strives to develop through their coursework and field placements.

    The School of Education candidate has asked you to evaluate their professional dispositions for admission into the Park School of Education.  If a student has demonstrated a competency by exhibiting the behaviors (or similar behaviors) outlined below each competency, then select "Knows and Shows This".  If the student needs improvement in an area and exhibits behaviors under "Needs to Know and/or Show This" then select that option. 

    The examples under each heading are samples only. Students do not need to demonstrate "all" of the examples to receive a "Knows and Shows This".  However, if it is an area that could use development, please use "Needs to Know and/or Show This" so we can assist the student in developing that area.
