  1. Teacher Performance Assessment Overview

  2. Background • Three-year grant to create a national teacher performance assessment • Based upon the Performance Assessment for Teacher Candidates (PACT) from California • Co-PIs ~ Linda Darling-Hammond & Ray Pecheone

  3. National Progress to Date • Secured commitments from 20 participating pilot states, including SEAs and IHEs • Field-based state and IHE review of the PACT assessment methodology, upon which this initiative is based • Conducted an alignment study with INTASC teaching standards, as well as state developed teaching standards • Developed initial policy context analyses for participating states • Convened design team of leading measurement experts and researchers to inform the development of the TPA.

  4. The 20 Partner States California New Jersey Colorado New York Illinois North Carolina Iowa Ohio Kentucky South Carolina Maryland Tennessee Massachusetts Virginia Michigan Washington Minnesota West Virginia Missouri Wisconsin

  5. Project Partners • AACTE • CCSSO • Stanford University • Lead IHE in Each State (Wright State for Ohio) • IHEs in Each State (University of Dayton, University of Cincinnati & The Ohio State University) • SEAs(ODE & OBR)

  6. Projected Outcomes • A reliable and valid Teacher Performance Assessment utilized to improve the consistency and quality of teacher effectiveness • An outcome database used by school districts to track teacher performance across the continuum of teachers’ careers • Provide information states could use to inform teacher quality initiatives, issue initial teacher licenses, and make accreditation decisions • An evidence-based methodology for making systematic decisions about recruitment, professional development and continuation of employment

  7. OUTCOMES • A national technology platform for data management, analysis and reporting of teacher outcomes that are connected directly to student outcomes • An empirical foundation for developing a more coherent national agenda for teacher quality assessment • The foundation for using Teacher Performance Assessment as a professional development tool for in-service teachers

  8. A Multiple Measures Assessment System The Capstone Teaching Event Embedded Signature Assessments — examples — • Teaching Event • Demonstrates : • Planning • Instruction • Assessing • Reflecting • Academic Language Child Case Studies Analyses of Student Learning Curriculum /Teaching Analyses Observation/Supervisory Evaluation & Feedback RP 8 8

  9. Discipline Specific Student Centered: Examines teaching practice in relationship to student learning Analytic feedback and support Maintains the complexity of teaching Adaptable & Generalizable Design Principles 9

  10. National Implementation Plan First Year – Tryouts of tasks Second Year – Pilot test of the prototypes Third Year – Field test, with collection of data to document validity, reliability, and fairness of assessment

  11. Spring Tryouts (March-June 2010) Testing Components of selected Prototypes: Elementary Literacy Secondary English/Lang Arts Elementary Math Secondary Math Secondary Science The Ohio IHEs have chosen to “smoke test” the planning and/or the assessment on student learning tasks.
