Abstract

The data were part of study from a five-year federally funded project conducted at a large public university in the southern United States in partnership with a local school district and select high needs schools within the district. As part of the university’s internship process, teacher candidates applying for their internship identify schools at which they prefer to complete their student teaching. Teacher candidates identified for this study were those who had completed all requirements for entering internship, who selected one or more of the partner high needs schools for internship placement, and who were ultimately assigned to one of the partner high needs schools. Block randomization was applied, with schools serving as blocks. After placement within a school, teacher candidates were randomly assigned to the enhanced internship or business-as-usual internship within their assigned school. The data represents 53 first year teachers-of-record. The variables include the condition to which they were assigned and employment in a high needs schools during their first year post-graduation.
