Transitioning to edTPA: A Middle Grades Teacher Education Program Looks Back and Ahead
Abstract
States around the nation are in the process of adopting or implementing a new teacher performance assessment, edTPA, into their requirements for new teacher certification. Part of the transition from in-house to off- site assessment should entail faculty in these teacher preparation programs learning how to translate between evidence in the assessment portfolios and the language on the local evaluation rubrics. This study uses qualitative and quantitative evidence to inform best practice for teacher preparation by sharing and discussing data on whether or not local evaluations in one Department of Teacher Education differed from those assigned by SCALE.
