That helps, thank you! :) Also, if I passed the PACT in
California (1 of 4 TPA choices, one of which is the edTPA) will
that be sufficient? Anyone have success with this? I can't see
why NY would have me redo the TPA my first year, if the
California one is virtually the same (video component, 60 plus
page paper, lesson planning, etc), it's just a different type of
performance assessment.
