New Teacher Assessment System
New Teacher Assessment System
Teachers that are new to the profession may need support and mentoring on the basics
of teaching to be successful. The NEW Teacher Basics Assessment
determines the proficiency of new teachers on ten
(10) basic skills needed by teachers to be successful from the beginning.
- Diverse Learners
- Effective Instructional Strategies
- Classroom Assessment and Data Analysis
- Special Education, Gifted and Title I - Meeting Special Needs
- Motivating Students
- Using Technology for Teaching and Learning
- How the Brain Learns
- Classroom Management
- Instructional Planning
- Teacher Support: The Profession
LEARNING BRIDGES® courses on each of these basics provide an
opportunity for ALTERNATIVE LICENSURE AND CERTIFICATION PROGRAMS. (Courses
available in the Professional Development System)
The following reports are available from the New Teacher Assessment System:
- Confidential Teacher Report
- School Composite Report
Confidential Teacher Report
The
Confidential Individual Teacher Report is displayed
on the screen for the teacher’s review when the test is submitted for scoring. For each
basic skill selected, the report will record the teacher’s proficiency level into one
of four categories. The categories are Expert, Proficient, Basic and Novice. The
report can be printed if desired.

School Composite Report
The
School Composite Report allows the principal to view
a composite of the scores and print a report showing the percentage of teachers in each
category – Expert, Proficient, Basic or Novice – for each basic skill pre-assessed.
This provides data for decision-making on where support is needed for new teachers to
increase teacher retention, teacher induction, and alternative licensure. Courses are
available in the Online Professional Development System ESPECIALLY designed for new teachers
on the basic skills of teaching. Administrators may utilize the NEW Teacher Basic Skills
Assessment and Report to monitor proficiency on those basics, over time, by using it as a
pre- and post-test option.

Teacher proficiency data can be aggregated and reported
at the
- District
- Regional
- State levels
These reports guide professional development and teacher quality decision-making.
