The QCTPA offers a comprehensive approach to evaluate candidates&#8217; preparedness for teaching in Pre-K to 12th grade classrooms. This assessment measures their knowledge, skills, and dispositions, with a primary emphasis on student learning. To align with the School of Education&#8217;s conceptual framework of Equity, Excellence, and Ethics (3Es) and its mission to deliver a progressive education for the upcoming generation of educators, the Portfolio draws on the principles of culturally responsive pedagogy and assessment as delineated in New York State&#8217;s Culturally Responsive-Sustaining Education Framework. The QCTPA comprises five key components: Lesson Planning, Lesson Delivery, Student Learning Assessment, Dispositions, and Reflective Practice. For more detailed information, please refer to the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.qc.cuny.edu\/academics\/se\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/98\/2023\/10\/2023-24-QCTPA-Handbook.pdf\">QCTPA Handbook<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Below is a compilation of <strong>frequently asked questions.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Why is the QCTPA needed?<\/em><\/strong> At the April 2022 Board of Regents Meeting, the Board voted to modify the teacher performance assessment requirement by eliminating the edTPA requirement for certification. Instead, New York State registered teacher preparation programs are required to integrate a teacher performance assessment (TPA) into the candidates\u2019 student teaching, practicum, or similar clinical experience (e.g., residency, mentored in-service component). The QCTPA meets this requirement.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>If I am hosting a student teacher, do they need to complete the QCTPA?<\/strong> <\/em>Yes, they do. Student teachers must complete and pass the QCTPA in order to be certified. Not providing them the opportunity to complete the QCTPA will jeopardize your student teacher\u2019s ability to be certified.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>If I am a cooperating teacher, what is required of me?<\/strong><\/em> Cooperating teachers do not have assigned tasks to complete for the QCTPA. Cooperating teachers, however, can support their student teachers through the QCTPA by ensuring that they are given the opportunity and time to complete the QCTPA tasks while in their placements.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 2\">\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\n<div class=\"column\">\n<p><em><strong>Is the QCTPA an optional undertaking?<\/strong> <\/em>No, it is not. The New York State Education Department mandates a teacher performance assessment for certification. To obtain a college recommendation for certification, candidates must successfully pass the QCTPA.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Who needs to complete the QCTPA?<\/strong> <\/em>All candidates in their Initial teaching certificate program are required to successfully pass the QCTPA in order to receive a college recommendation for certification.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>In what course is connected to the QCTPA?<\/strong> <\/em>Candidates must complete the QCTPA in student teaching, practicum, or similar clinical experience (e.g., residency, mentored in-service component). The specific course will be determined and communicated to candidates by their respective programs.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Will the QCTPA be graded?<\/strong> <\/em>Yes, for certification purposes, the QCTPA will be graded on a pass\/fail basis. To receive a college recommendation, candidates must attain a passing grade on the QCTPA and achieve a grade of B or higher in their student teaching course. Additionally, instructors or supervisors may opt to assign a letter grade as part of the course.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>How do student teachers complete the QCTPA?<\/strong><\/em> The QCTPA is accessible via the ºì¶¹ÊÓÆµ School of Education Anthology Portfolio. It is highly recommended that candidates closely review each section of the QCTPA Portfolio Handbook. Within the handbook, candidates will find a glossary containing essential term definitions, links, guiding questions, rubrics, and exemplars to aid them throughout the process.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Can cooperating teachers review the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.qc.cuny.edu\/academics\/se\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/98\/2023\/10\/2023-24-QCTPA-Handbook.pdf\">QCTPA Handbook<\/a>?<\/strong> <\/em>Yes.

The handbook, along with this FAQ, can be found here.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>What can cooperating teachers do to support their student teachers through the QCTPA?<\/em> <\/strong>Cooperating teachers can support their student teachers by providing them a space to engage in lesson planning, teaching, and assessing student learning so they can complete the QCTPA.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>[\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=&#8221;ºì¶¹ÊÓÆµ Cooperating Teacher Professional Learning Modules&#8221; toggle_icon=&#8221;&#xf055;||fa||900&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; link_option_url_new_window=&#8221;on&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; open=&#8221;off&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"TextRun SCXW46977934 BCX0\" lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\" data-contrast=\"auto\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW46977934 BCX0\">The <strong>ºì¶¹ÊÓÆµ Cooperating Teacher Professional <\/strong><\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW46977934 BCX0\"><strong>Learning<\/strong> <strong>Modules <\/strong><\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW46977934 BCX0\">are<\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW46977934 BCX0\"> designed to help prepare <\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW46977934 BCX0\">school-based teacher educators<\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW46977934 BCX0\"> to host ºì¶¹ÊÓÆµ student teachers.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"EOP SCXW46977934 BCX0\" data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1}\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">In April 2019, the Board of Regents Higher Education Committee passed an amendment that requires school-based educators (cooperating teachers) and university-based teacher educators (supervisors) to participate in professional learning in partnership with P-12 and higher education faculty in order to provide effective clinical supervision.
