SCALE will convene the annual Teacher Performance Assessment Conference on October 19-20, 2018, in San Jose, CA. The event will be preceded by an invitation-only preconference day at Stanford University on October 18. The Program Committee welcomes proposals from implementers of edTPA, the P-12 community, and all individuals who support teachers and teacher candidates with performance assessment. This year, we are also excited to invite proposals from our international colleagues and educators who are involved with teacher performance assessment and evaluation on a global level.

On October 19-21, 2018, the Stanford Center for Assessment, Learning and Equity and AACTE will host the annual edTPA Implementation Conference for the edTPA consortium in the San Francisco Bay Area. The edTPA conference is an annual multi-day gathering of higher education administrators, faculty and supervisors, state education agencies and P-12 community members who are seeking to deepen their understanding of teacher performance assessment and network within a learning community of edTPA users.

The conference includes a keynote, welcome session, concurrent sessions, a plenary policy panel, and an evening reception. Attendees will have great opportunities to exchange ideas about edTPA implementation with a common goal of supporting candidates and teacher education programs with an educative experience related to examining evidence of learning and practice. This year’s conference will also include a focus on the performance assessment occurring internationally. We look forward to seeing you in October! Stay tuned for more information.
