History
The Department of the History and Art of Education was one of the original twenty-one departments at Stanford University. Ellwood Patterson Cubberley was the department chair from 1898 to 1917. One of his first hires was Lewis Terman, who modified a French intelligence test to create the Stanford-Binet intelligence scale. Released in 1916, it became the standard intelligence test in the United States and brought worldwide fame to Terman and to Stanford.[3]
The department awarded its first Ph.D. in 1916, and in 1917 it was renamed the Stanford University School of Education (SUSE). Cubberley became the first dean of the School of Education and served in that position until 1933. The Graduate School of Education building, funded in large part by a donation from Cubberley, and Cubberley Library were both built in 1938.[4]
In 2013 the school's name was changed to the Stanford Graduate School of Education to better reflect its advanced research and its graduate-level preparation of educators, scholars, policy makers and entrepreneurs.[4]
Programs for teachers
The Stanford Teacher Education Program (STEP), to train teachers, was established in 1959.[4] The STEP program offers two tracks, elementary or secondary. Both are one-year programs including both academic course work and teaching in actual classrooms, and both lead to a Stanford MA degree and a California teaching credential.[5]
The school also offers numerous professional development programs and resources for practicing elementary and secondary school teachers. These include the Center for the Support of Excellence in Teaching, the National Board Resource Center, the Problem-Solving Cycle, and Stanford English Learner Education Services.[6]
Ranking
Ever since U.S. News & World Report began ranking schools of education, Stanford has ranked among the top ten overall in the United States and has received the top peer assessment score of any school each year.[7]
