Session Outcomes
This session will focus on policy and
implementation to help EPPs effectively and
fully implement the edTPA by 2015-2016:
•
•
•
National, state, and provider policy will be
discussed;
EPP panelists will share their strategies and
activities; and
State and national resources will be shared
….so that candidates can be successful.
About edTPA
• The edTPA is a subject-specific performance
assessment administered during a candidate’s
student teaching.
• It has been designed to be educative and
predictive of effective teaching and student
learning.
• The assessment, developed by Stanford
University, has been field tested in over 25 states,
including 8 IHEs in Georgia. This spring a large
number of our private and public IHEs are piloting
it with some of their programs.
6
About Effective Teaching
• Develop knowledge of subject matter, content
standards and subject-specific pedagogy
• Develop and apply knowledge of varied students’
needs
• Consider research and theory about how students
learn
• Reflect on and analyze evidence of the effects of
instruction on student learning
7
Benefits
•Educative to inform candidates and program
improvement
•Collaboration: IHE/LEA
•Informing induction programs
•Program Accountability
8
Benefits to Candidates
•An authentic, educative assessment
•Charts their early professional development
progression
•Prepares them for the new teacher evaluation
systems
•Identifies areas of strength and areas for
development

Level 2
Level 3
Level 4
Level 5
The assessments only
provide evidence of
students' procedural
skills and/or factual
knowledge.
The assessments
provide limited
evidence to monitor

understanding,
procedural fluency,
AND mathematical
reasoning and/or
problem solving skills
during the learning
segment.
The assessments
provide evidence to
monitor students’
conceptual
understanding,
procedural fluency, AND
mathematical reasoning
and/or problem solving
skills during the learning

The assessments provide
multiple forms of evidence
to monitor students’
progress toward
developing conceptual
understanding, procedural
fluency, AND
mathematical reasoning
and/or problem solving
skills throughout the
learning segment.

National Policy
Scoring:
• A candidate will be able to designate one local EPP
faculty member to view and provide feedback after
the edTPA has been uploaded and before it has been
submitted for official scoring.
• edTPA portfolios will be scored by trained and
calibrated scorers, selected based on their
experience with candidates who wish to become
teachers and their content knowledge and
pedagogical expertise.
23
National Policy
•ES will provide scores for each of the fifteen (15) rubrics
on a scale from one (1) to five (5) as well as a score for
each of the three (3) tasks. The overall score reflects the
total of the scores on the fifteen (15) rubrics. The
summative score of the 15 rubrics will be reported on a
scale of fifteen (15) to seventy-five (75).
•Candidates will receive an individual score report from ES
that will include the score obtained on each of the edTPA
rubrics on each task and a total score.

National Policy
Access to Data:
• Designated EPPs participating in edTPA will have
electronic access to demographic and
performance information for candidates who have
listed the EPP as a score report recipient.
• EPPs will have access to the web-based
ResultsAnalyzer™ data reporting tool for edTPA to
generate reports related to the EPP and the
candidates enrolled at the EPP.
25
National Policy
• Score reports will be provided to candidates
through the website. EPPs may also assign a
contact person to receive scores for candidates
who have designated the EPP.

post-submission, but will not be accessible to

EdTPA Advisory Committee
Purpose of EdTPA Policy and Implementation
Advisory Committee
• Inform policy
• Establish expectations, including
milestones/activities, of where we need to be
each year in order to effectively implement
edTPA by 2015-2016
• Identify/build structures of support
• Establish timelines
32
Draft edTPA State Policy
• Will be required to be passed to earn an Induction
Certificate in the planned Tiered Certification model
• Will count fifteen percent (15)% toward the PPEM for
fields in which there is a state-adopted edTPA Handbook
• Becomes consequential in 2015-2016. In short,
candidates who student teach in Fall 2015 and those that
student teach in Spring 2016 will be required to take the
edTPA. GaTAPP candidates must take the edTPA the
second semester after completing the first full semester
33
Draft edTPA State Policy
• Will be required for all Georgia stateapproved EPP candidates in initial teaching
fields (for which an edTPA has been stateadopted) and for all out-of-state candidates
who are completing clinical field experience
in Georgia’s schools
• Will not be required for service fields, even
though there are edTPA handbooks for
some service fields
34
Pending Decisions
• The appropriate edTPA Handbooks must be
selected for each field.
• A determination regarding the PPEM score
needs to be made for teaching fields for which
there is state-adopted edTPA Handbook.
• A determination needs to be made whether
taking or passing the edTPA is required for
program completion.
35
Pending Decisions
• A Georgia passing cut score needs to be
determined, which may/may not be based
on the national passing cut score.
• Georgia can set additional retake policy
over and above the national retake policy.
• Additional discussion is needed on how
edTPA might inform induction programs.
36
Pending Decisions
• A Georgia passing cut score needs to be
determined, which may/may not be based
on the national passing cut score.
• Georgia can set additional retake policy
over and above the national retake policy.
• Additional discussion is needed on how
edTPA might inform induction programs.
