National Board For Professional Teaching Standards NBPTS Responds to Teachers

NBPTS Revises the Process! To meet the goal to improve education for all students. To incorporate the latest research on best practices. To remove barriers for teachers to seek National Board Certification.

Efficiency Maintain the same level of rigor while submitting four components!

Evaluate student learning in light of the goals and the instruction. Provide timely, meaningful feedback to students about their level of accomplishment of the targeted goals. Reflect on student learning, the effectiveness of instructional design, particular concerns and issues. Set new high and worthwhile goals that are appropriate for these students at this time.
