Frankfort Center for Learning and Scholarly Technologies

The Frankfort Video Analysis project of pre-certification teachers and counselors was initiated in 2007 and has since become a requirement for every degree and certificate candidate at the Hunter College School of Education. This innovative database has been improving professional development and teacher preparation via embedded rubrics and observation tools. The corresponding library of best practices and teachable moments is one of the nation’s first archive of indexed student-teaching videos. The VAT/VAC was lauded by the NCTQ in their 2014 rankings of educational programs as a resource that comprises, “promising or exemplary materials from teacher preparation programs.”
