As nationwide calls for educational rigor and accountability continue across the U.S., many states have made the edTPA(R), a teacher performance assessment, a requirement for teacher certification. The edTPA(R) is a subject-specific performance assessment that requires aspiring teachers to plan, implement, assess, and reflect upon a learning segment, while demonstrating pedagogical skills related to their disciplines. While it is designed to promote teaching excellence, the edTPA(R) can drive already-stressed teacher candidates to their breaking point, as it places them in an unfamiliar classroom and asks them to quickly display their knowledge and savvy.

This book is here to help teacher candidates not only survive the challenge of the edTPA(R), but also thrive. It maps out precisely what steps aspiring secondary education teachers should take to ensure successful completion of the edTPA(R). Demystifying the language used in the assessment, it uniquely connects edTPA(R) requirements with what teacher candidates learn within their teacher preparation programs, showing them how the assessment relates to what they are already doing in their classrooms. The strategies in this book draw on both academic research and practical experience to guide student teachers as they plan for their edTPA(R) portfolios and for their teaching careers beyond.

Professionalism in Post-Compulsory Education and Training: Empirical and Theoretical Perspectives
<p>What does 'professionalism' mean for teachers and trainers in further education colleges or adult education centres? Over the last twenty years, ideas about professionalism and professional identity within the post-compulsory sector have been shaped and reshaped by successive policies, standards, and professional bodies. Yet, these ideas themselves remain controversial and continue to be the focus of debate as well as research. </p><br/><br/><p>This book gathers together a series of articles published over the last ten years, providing critical and research-based perspectives on professionalism within post-compulsory education and training. The twelve chapters that are presented here explore issues such as professional standards and continuing professional development and their impact on current definitions and frameworks of professionalism, as well as the policies that have shaped these processes. These are issues that are of relevance and importance not only to practitioners and researchers in the post-compulsory sector, but to anyone who is concerned with contemporary debates about what it means to be 'a professional' in education and training. The chapters in this book were originally published as articles in <i>Research in Post-Compulsory Education.</p></i>
