1. Overview

2. 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.  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.

5.  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.  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.  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
