Candidate Instructions for edTPA Retake 2015
Candidate Instructions for edTPA™ Retake If you have received a Score Profile for an edTPA assessment and have not passed based on your state or program passing standard, you may retake the entire assessment or a single task of the assessment. How do I decide what to retake? Consult with your faculty advisor before proceeding with a retake and discuss how retaking edTPA will support your professional preparation to teach. As you meet with your faculty advisor, you should always consider the performance standard required by the state or program when making a retake plan. This will allow you to identify a retake option that allows you as a teacher candidate to demonstrate effective teaching in your areas of weakness. Take some time to examine your overall total score and its distance from the performance standard, as well as patterns of scores within and across the 3 tasks (planning, instruction and assessment) to identify any patterns of strength and weakness. This will help you and your faculty advisor determine if a whole edTPA or single-task retake is in the your best interest as a candidate. If your overall performance is generally strong, then a single-task retake might be the best plan of action. However, if your overall performance is very low, or there are a number of rubrics across tasks that show weaknesses, then a whole edTPA retake may be required. What are the policies guiding what I submit for a retake? Retake when original materials may be resubmitted: When retaking any portion of edTPA, if the candidate is teaching the same group of students as in the original submission, the same context information about that group of students may be resubmitted. If the candidate is retaking a single task that was unscorable based on condition codes or the entire assessment that was reported with condition codes, the retake submission may include previously submitted materials with revisions that address the reason for the condition code (e.g., video unplayable, missing or unreadable artifacts). Retake submissions when original materials may NOT be resubmitted. All other submitted materials other than the Context for Learning for the same class must reflect new artifacts and/or commentaries for planning, instructing, or assessment for student learning, and must not have been previously submitted for edTPA. Revised or edited versions of previously submitted materials may not be part of the retake submission. Task 2 option. If the candidate has recorded additional video footage from the original learning segment that demonstrate teaching associated with the central Copyright © 2014 Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior University.

If the candidate can analyze class performance on a new assessment from the original learning segment, submit new work samples from that assessment for three focus students, and has evidence of language use, either from the new assessment or an additional video, then the candidate can submit these materials with a new commentary.
