TeachForward Details
Building upon a comprehensive performance assessment created by a team of national experts, we work shoulder-to-shoulder with states to design and implement innovative Tier 2 licensing systems. By training and certifying local educators to score authentic work from their peers and aligning the assessment to the essential competencies in the state standards for the teaching profession, we help states reach a shared vision for effective teaching and learning. TeachForward's teacher licensing performance assessment is:- Rigorous: Multiple measures of effectiveness are used to assess teacher capacity, including: video observations of classroom instruction, interactions with parents, curriculum and assessment design, and other artifacts of teacher and student work.- Instructive: Designed to be integrated into existing initial licensure, annual performance evaluation and mentorship/induction systems, our model provides a powerful capacity building experience for both candidates and assessors.- Authentic: Submitted and scored online, performance tasks rely on digital portfolios of a teacher's real work.- Customizable: Our unique technology platform enables states to implement a customized set of performance tasks aligned to nationally researched and locally defined professional standards.TeachForward currently implements Ohio's Resident Educator Summative Assessment (RESA) for the second tier of Ohio's multi-tiered teacher licensing system.
