Teacher education has long relied on locally-developed assessments
that lack reliability and validity. Rigorous performance-based
assessments for preservice teachers have been advanced as one
possible way to ensure that all students receive instruction from a
high-quality teacher. Recently, performance-basedassessments have
been developed which focus on the application of knowledge of
teaching and learning in a classroom setting. Our book explores
factors related to the implementation of teacher performance
assessments in varying state and institutional contexts. The
contributors, teacher educators from across the country, focus on
what was learned from inquiries conducted using diverse
methodologies (quantitative, qualitative, self-studies, and mixed
methods). Their research encompassed faculty, supervisors,
cooperating teachers, and students' perceptions and concerns of
teacher performance assessments, case studies of curricular reform
and/or resistance, analyses of experiences and needs as a result of
the adoption of such assessments, and examinations of the results
of program alignment and reform. The chapters showcase experiences
which occurred during high-stakes situations, in implementation
periods prior to high-stakes adoption, and in contexts where
programs adopted performance assessments as an institutional policy
rather than as a result of a state-wide mandate.
