Slide7Overview
“Teaching Practice and Learning Environment captures details about your instructional planning, direct evidence of your practice from two video recordings and instructional materials, and your analysis of and reflection on your teaching as displayed in two video recordings. You will be evaluated on the demonstrated evidence of your practice and analysis as it relates to instruction, student engagement, and the learning environment. This portfolio entry and the rubric used to assess your submission are aligned with the Five Core Propositions and the certificate area Standards.”

Candidates must obtain a release form signed by the parent of any child who will appear in the videos for Component 3.
Component 3 must be submitted through ePortfolio during the established submission window.
Slide10Component 3 Specifics
Component 3 includes:
Brief overview of content for the overall submission
Two 10-15 minute videos

Candidates may borrow a class
Not Scorable (NS)
Slide12Time Period
Evidence collection may occur up to 12 months prior to the ePortfolio submission window.
Slide13Variety of Evidence
Evidence for Components 2 and 4 and one of the video recordings for Component 3:
may be from the same unit of instruction
must be from different lessons with unique goals and objectives
Slide14Certificate Specifics
Candidates should refer to the “Portfolio Instructions and Scoring Rubric” for specifics related to:
the focus for your lessons;
the standards measured by Component 3;
page counts and formatting specifications;
the prompts for the written commentary;
the required forms;
and the certificate specific scoring rubric.
Slide15Rationale
It is always important to know where we are going before we begin a journey.National Board provides information about what is expected of candidates.Putting all of that information into one document will help you focus your work.
Slide16Planning for Component 3
Review the “What do I Need to Submit?” and the “Selecting a Lesson for Each Video” portion of your portfolio instructions. Summarize this information in 3-4 sentences.
Slide17Planning for Component 3
Which National Board Standards are measured by Component 3?
How can you use the standards to plan your lessons?
Slide18“They judiciously select the appropriate tool for a given purpose based on a deep understanding of child development, their observations of specific children, and knowledge of the data that the assessment generates. Teachers know when to employ standardized assessments and when to use performance-based assessments. They understand the differences between formative and summative assessments and know when to employ each type. They use pre-assessments to determine a child’s baseline knowledge or developmental level and post-assessments to determine whether a child has met a desired goal. Accomplished teachers collect samples of children’s
learning and development over time with tools such as anecdotal records and portfolios. They may use conversations as a way to gain invaluable information from a child or parent. They know how to develop meaningful and comprehensive checklists to observe specific skills, and they employ rubrics that clearly and comprehensively
reflect the criteria for evaluating a specific task. Accomplished teachers ensure that assessments validly assess the skills they purport to measure; for example, a mathematics assessment may require a child to identify or draw shapes rather than merely asking questions about shapes. Accomplished teachers employ multiple assessments to discover valuable information about the whole child and to define and prioritize teaching, learning, and developmental goals.”

Slide19Scoring Rubric
The NB rubrics are:both certificate and component specificbased on four-levelsLevel 4 performance – clear, consistent, and convincing evidenceLevel 3 performance – clear evidenceLevel 2 performance – limited evidenceLevel 1 performance – little or no evidence
Slide20Your Teaching Should Be Portrayed…
Clearly
Consistently
Convincingly
Component 3 leads the assessor through your decision-making processes so carefully that he/she is not surprised by a decision, recommendation, or conclusion you make about your students, your curriculum, or yourself.
Slide21Planning for Component 3
The Level 4 performance provides clear, consistent, and convincing evidence.
