Description
This course focuses on teaching candidates how to master the requirements for edTPA, a performance-based assessment, developed by Stanford University faculty and staff at the Stanford Center for Assessment, Learning, and Equity (SCALE), to engage candidates in demonstrating their understanding of teaching and student learning in authentic ways. The course is designed to focus on student learning and principles from research and theory. Upon completion of the course, teacher candidates will become more proficient at developing knowledge of subject matter, content standards, and subject-specific pedagogy; developing and applying knowledge of varied students' needs; considering research and theory about how students learn; and reflecting on and analyzing evidence of the effects of instruction on student learning.
Students must pass edTPA to pass this course.
Prerequisite: Stage II
