What is edTPA?

Information on edTPA cycle

 

edTPA is a preservice assessment process designed by educators, developed by the Stanford Center for Assessment, Learning, and Equity, and accessible via Pearson. It is required for teacher licensure recommendation as well as completing Professional Year and to support accreditation at UNC Asheville as of Fall 2019. As stated by edTPA.org, “It goes beyond classroom credits to ask teacher candidates to demonstrate what they can and will do on the job, translating into practice what research shows improves learning.” Note: For access to most of the resources below, you must be logged in to your edTPA.org account.
