The New York State Education Department is currently | |
developing an innovative and comprehensive system for | |
teacher certification assessment. One component is the | |
Assessment of Teaching Skills-Performance (ATS-P), a | |
video-based performance assessment for which teachers | |
would prepare and submit a videotape of their instruction | |
for evaluation by permanently certified New York State | |
teachers. The development of the ATS-P is traced, and | |
plans for its future application are discussed. An early | |
feasibility study, conducted by the project developer, | |
National Evaluation Systems, Inc., examined the basic | |
technical issues by videotaping several public school | |
teachers at work. This study indicated that basic video | |
equipment used without special training could make tapes | |
with a high level of quality. In a Phase 2 study, the | |
ability of teachers to produce videotapes was | |
ascertained. A third component of the feasibility study | |
examined the ability of teachers to score videotaped | |
performance consistently. The results of all three | |
studies indicate the feasibility of using videotape | |
recordings in teacher evaluation. Some preliminary | |
policies for administration of the ATS-P have been | |
developed. Although many development activities remain, | |
the ATS-P is on its way to providing a reliable | |
assessment of teacher performance. (Contains 2 | |
