Student Teaching Evaluation Workgroup

Spring, 2005

In June of 2003, the Connecticut State Department of Education convened a Title II workgroup to review state teaching standards and develop an instrument to be used statewide for the purpose of assessing student teaching performance. The committee was charged with the task of developing an instrument for assessing student teaching performance that would be aligned with the Connecticut Common Core of Teaching (CCCT) and be part of the unit assessment system as required under National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE) standards pursuant to Connecticut Program Approval Regulations which stipulate that all teacher preparation programs shall:

• Demonstrate that students are knowledgeable about the Common Core of Learning, the Common Core of Teaching, the Connecticut Mastery Tests, the Connecticut Academic Performance Test, the Code of Professional Responsibility for Teachers, and the Code of Professional Responsibility for School Administrators; and
• Ensure that students demonstrate current Connecticut licensure competencies as defined in ...the Common Core of Teaching, and the Connecticut Content Specific Standards.

The Student Teaching Evaluation Rubric and related forms are intended for use statewide by the 15 Connecticut teacher preparation institutions and the Alternate Route to Certification (ARC) Program in assessing student teacher performance in order to determine the candidate's competency and eligibility for Connecticut certification.
