Component 4 Questions

by M_Lo

1. Can photos be used in the Participation in Learning Communities section as part of the evidence?

I read through the directions and can only find pictures explicitly stated as submitted evidence on page 9 under the Generation and Use of Assessment Data section. I can't find anywhere that we can't under the Participation in Learning Commu...See More

Component 4 Evidence

by Guitar22

Mar 9, 2017

Hi there. I'm currently working on Component 4 Exceptional Needs Specialists and I had a question about the evidence. Does anyone know if it's okay to use a copy of the actual IEP goals/progress notes of a student if all the personal information is blacked out? I've called and email NBPTS and haven't been able to get an answer. Thanks!

Mrs. D That might be a question for What Works. It would be evidence, but not sure if it should be used (legal issues).

Component 3 Biology

by Stone

Jan 4, 2017

I am working on component 3 and have been struggling to choose a lesson. I am doing biology but I am using my anatomy and physiology classes. I just filmed a lesson about creating meaningful graphs from student generated data. I think it is a good lesson but I'm afraid that because it doesn't actually serve to fill a biology standard I will be off ...See More

BioLisa Sorry this is so delayed...

I have great news for you: the only thing about your submissions that has to be about Biology is in Component 1, the testing. I actually called last year to ensure of this because I was in a similar situation. I ended up doing one of my videos in my Physical Science class during the "Math Review" unit....See More

sherry So it is ok that I am using different units? I do teach graphing with the science lesson, but was going to use a fraction lesson instead.

If my lesson starts off as whole groups and then the students begin experimenting in small groups--which would I use???? So confused:(

What Works Yes, you can use different units. They don't have to be related in any way.

Component IV Knowledge of Students ELA-AYA

by nativol

Mar 13, 2017

I have compiled the information from a survey I gave my students during the 1st week of school into a 1 page document. I am struggling to decide if this is a good piece of evidence for the component IV Knowledge of Students. I am wondering if I should stick to sources of knowledge outside of the students themselves when providing evidence. Thoughts...See More

EA/MATH COMPONENT 4

by Dustin

Feb 8, 2017

I'm interested to know what student needs people who are doing Math are choosing. Also, where can I find some good surveys that I could use to give my students and their families to further determine the student need among my students? I'm a bit confused. Thanks!

Teresa Vaughn I am thinking about the need to coominicste reasoning more clearly and the need to persevere through multi step problems. I found lots of self-assessment rubrics on teachers pay teachers but was also going to include peer review, error analysis on sticky notes from the formative and their analysis when using the scoring rubric. Also thinking about ...See More

EMC Literacy Comp 3 Social/Physical Context

by Angeline

Mar 1, 2017

Hi all,

I'm having a little trouble with the writing about planning section of Component 3. When it asks, "How did the social and physical context you described influence your planning", what does that mean?

Thanks!
