  1. A Look atRenewal

  2. Understanding theRenewal Process • Goals are to leave this presentation understanding: • the details of the Profile of Professional Growth (PPG) • the evaluation process • possible avenues you can follow to complete the PPG

  3. We Are Dedicated to Five Core Propositions • Teachers are committed to students and their learning. • Teachers know the subjects they teach and how to teach those subjects to students. • Teachers are responsible for managing and monitoring student learning. • Teachers think systematically about their practice and learn from experience. • Teachers are members of learning communities.

  4. The Assessment Design Consists of Three Components and a Reflection Component 1 Component 2 Reflection Component 3

  5. Putting This Design Together Paints a Picture of a Profile of Professional Growth

  6. Component 1 PGE 1 PGE 2 PGE 4 PGE 3 Each Professional Growth Experience (PGE) consists of 3 pages of Written Commentary and 2 pages of Samples of Products (SOP)

  7. Component 1 What is a Professional Growth Experience?

  8. Component 1 Professional experiences beyond the classroom • Ongoing and evolving • Multifaceted • Varied

  9. Component 1 What are some examples? • Courses taken that go from application to …? • Self-study on a topic that leadsto …? • Individual after-school tutoring that develops into …?

  10. Component 1 What are Samples of Products?

  11. Component 1 Artifacts, documentation, enhancements • Support the PGE by highlighting activities • Link to some of the activities within the PGE • Provide additional information, clarification

  12. Component 1 What are some examplesof SOPs? • Certificates: workshops, courses • Handouts for the classroom or for presentations • Learner produced work • Letters, agendas

  13. Component 1 PGE 1 PGE 2 PGE 4 PGE 3 • describe the professional situation • describe the PGE • identify the need and tell how the PGE addresses the need For each PGE a candidate is required to:

  14. Component 1 Here? Here? • There are 3 more prompts • These other prompts can be addressed anywhere within the four PGEs • They may be addressed in all four, but that is not necessary Here? AND/OR Here?

  15. Component 1 Here? Here? • What content and/or pedagogical knowledge was acquired and deepened? • Explain your acquisition and/or use of technology • Describe your interaction with colleagues, professional groups, parents and/or community members and tell how this has enhanced professional growth Here? AND/OR Here?

  16. Component 2 Written Commentary Video Component 2 consists of 4 pages of Written Commentary and a 10-minute Video

  17. Component 2 Component 2 • Class must be that of original certification • Can be video recorded in the 8th or 9th year of certification • Can be segmented • Date stamped

  18. Component 2 Component 2 Prompts • What are the ages of the students in the class? • To which PGE is this component connected? • What are the goals for the lesson and what is the connection to the overall learning? • Why is the instruction important for the students? • Equity of access and promotion of diversity? • What is the impact on student learning? • What is the connection to your certificate specific content knowledge?

  19. Component 3Connected to a Different PGE Written Commentary Video OR Learner Work Component 3 consists of 4 pages of Written Commentary and a 6-minute Video OR 8 pages of Learner Work

  20. Component 3 Component 3 Prompts • What are the goals for the featured lesson? • What is the connection to the broader context of instruction? • Why is this instruction important for these learners at this time? • What is the connection to the PGE? • Where in the evolution of the PGE does this activity fit? • Cite specific evidence of learning from the video/Learner work.

  21. Component 3 Component 3 Video • Second classroom video • A video showing interaction with colleagues (candidates?) or parents • Video produced by learner

  22. Component 3 Component 3 Hard Copy • Classroom based assignments • Scripts of activities • Documents • Computer print-outs Learner work:

  23. Reflection Reflection • 3 pages • Reflects analysis of Components 1, 2, and 3

  24. Reflection Reflection • How have the Components directly or indirectly impacted student learning? • Discuss changes, additions, next steps that would enhance your professional growth. • Which NBPTS Standards have presented the greatest challenge, and what have you done to address them? • What patterns, themes have emerged that define you as an educator? Respond to the following prompts:

  25. A Look ata Sample PPG:Rea Zertification

  26. Component 1 PGE 1 Rea moved into a new school and was shocked at the lack of parent involvement. • Went to the principal to discuss ideas. • Developed a newsletter to parents informing them about classroom activities and asking for input. • Established a monthly evening activity for parents based on a current topic of study. • Rea and principal and 2 other teachers established a monthly day session for parents. • Established after-school tutoring sessions at parent request. • Since the majority of students come from Hispanic homes, Rea started taking Spanish lessons.

  27. Component 1 PGE 2 Rea’s district mandated computer training because it felt that students in all classrooms need teachers as Resources for computer issues. • Took required 2- day workshop. • Took additional courses offered at a local college. • Organized her team of teachers to develop lessons based on computer use. Students interacted with their reading on the computer. They read more and understood more. • Used the lessons to do a presentationat a faculty meeting.

  28. Component 1 PGE 3 Rea learned that a well-known speaker on cooperative learning was coming to the area, and since she felt a bit uncomfortable with small group work, she decided to attend. • Attended the session and purchased the book. • Read the book and met with colleagues who were also interested. The group studied the material and planned lessons. • Lesson went well. Rea took other workshops on various topics from her district. • Became involved with district professional development office.

  29. Component 1 PGE 4 Rea teaches reading and wanted to enhance her Knowledge. • Went to IRA Conference. Returned with many materials. • Entered Masters Degree program in Literacy and received her degree. • Accepted position as curriculum director with focus on updating district curriculum. • Applied for and was accepted as a full-time professor at a local college.

  30. Component 2 Component 2 • A lesson that focuses on Rea working with students working on computers. Connected to PGE? • A lesson that shows students working in literature circles. Connected to PGE? • What might be another possibility? And the PGE? The ten-minute lesson could have been:

  31. Component 3 Component 3 • What are some possibilities? • And to which PGE is your possibility connected?

  32. Reflection Reflection Rea’s Reflection • Impact on Student Learning? • Next steps? • Challenging Standards? • Patterns?

  33. Finding Evidence • What were the significant needs ? • What content knowledge was acquired? Deepened? • What pedagogy was acquired? Deepened? • What current technology was acquired/applied? • Who was involved? colleagues, parents, community members? • Was standards-based instruction applied? • Did the candidate ensure equity of access and promote diversity? • Was there meaningful impact on student learning?

  34. Then this candidate was renewed.

  35. Evaluation

  36. Evaluation • All components and reflection are evaluated as one entity. • Evidence comes from all components and is collected against the scoring criteria which are directly from the rubric. • Decision is either Renewed or Not Renewed. • Not Renewed eighth-year candidates receive some feedback focused on the scoring criteria. • All PPGs are evaluated by two NBCTs in the same content and developmental level.

  37. A trainer reviews all Non Renewed PPGs.

  38. What’s in Your PPG? Component 1 Component 2 Reflection Component 3
