20 Point 4. TExES Test Preparation & Testing Policies 20 Any candidate in the A&M Texarkana TPP must score 80% or above on all required practice tests before released to register for TExES exams. Candidates taking Core Exams (EC-6 and 4-8) must score with 80% on each domain. Candidates not successful on TExES examination, must make an appointment with any education instructor to create a new study plan to supplement the plan created at the test preparation workshop. The student presents the TEA examination score report and the instructor guides the student through an item analysis to identify areas of strengths and areas for improvements by competency. The test profile is used to construct a study plan and locate resources to enhance readiness for the next attempt. The study plan is forwarded to the Certification Coordinator as well as copied for the students use. Practice retests will be administered in a testing center, workshop, or by appointment with a faculty member. Only representative tests are accepted as valid scores.
21 Point 5. Program Portfolio 21 Undergraduate teacher candidates are required to complete the program with a portfolio to document their preparation. This is a requirement of their Student Teaching course (i.e. ED 495,ED 496). Students should keep electronic copies of all work completed throughout the program (e.g. papers, discussion posts, etc.). It is recommended that students organize their work in electronic folders assigned for each of their education courses (ED, SPED, RDG, ITED). Candidates who do not have documentation of preparation from coursework (e.g. course waived due to transfer) must meet with TPP Director to determine appropriate manner to document coursework of those course(s) in Portfolio. Education course syllabi will identify a minimum of two assignments in the course for portfolio submission. Courses required to identify assignments are listed on Program Portfolio Rubric (see next slide). The Program Portfolio is due in Tk20 at the end the last semester prior to completion of coursework (December or May). Specific portfolio information requirements will be provided at Student Teaching Orientation. Students are encouraged to manage their portfolio throughout their career as a professional educator. Tk20 allows A&M-Texarkana candidates and graduates to prepare a Professional Portfolio that can be accessed up to 7 years from the date of purchase.
