Measuring Quality in Initial Teacher Education (MQuITE).
This six-year, Scottish Government funded project aims to create a context specific way for the examination of quality in ITE. It is currently working with newly qualified teachers, probationers and those in the first five years of their teaching career to identify how ITE impacts on the early careers of teachers and hence identify how ITE adds quality. The co-PIs are Dr Paul Adams (University of Strathclyde, paul.adams@strath.ac.uk) and Prof Aileen Kennedy (University of Strathclyde, aileen.kennedy@strath.ac.uk). The research assistant is Dr Mark Carver (University of Strathclyde, mark.carver@strath.ac.uk). Information can be found on the Scottish Council of Deans website (www.scde.ac.uk)
