You may remember that the D.C.-based council wanted the material for its rankings of teacher preparation programs.
An NCTQ report card on those programs came out in June -- Minnesota and the rest of the nations didn't look stellar -- and immediately took heat from education experts, who called it inaccurate and incomplete.
It also drew a critical note from Mistilina Sato, director of the Educator Development and Research Center.
