2 The study sought to align the standards framework with “the expectations of teachers” by considering: teachers’ views in a number of distinct ways, and other stakeholder perspectives. The study offers a broad, extensive and intensive program by drawing upon research approaches to target different but complementary perspectives.

3 The Research Design

4 Study 1 Design The first Study is designed to provide data on two issues how difficult teachers, across the four stages, find each of the standards to achieve how the draft standards might be improved or modified. Two teacher survey were used to collect data in Study 1.

5 Study One (cont…) There were two Surveys, A and B of 81 items each, with fourteen descriptors being common to both questionnaires. This configuration was more manageable for teachers than a single survey of 148 items. The use of common descriptors across the two surveys provided anchored items to enable the development of a single scale of ‘difficulty’.

21 Study 2 Design The second Study investigated the internal validity of the Standards by providing data on four issues related to each career stage how appropriate are each of the standards to the four career stages how prepared are teachers for each standard in each career stage the development priority teachers ascribe to each standard in each career stage the internal validity of the standards through appropriate – preparedness = development priority

22 Study 2 Methodology Four survey instruments were developed. Each survey contained the descriptors for only one of the four key career stages All teachers within a school were asked to complete the same survey instrument, e.g., all teachers in a school completed the survey for the Graduate Teacher key career stage An appropriate number of log in codes were posted to the Principal for each teacher in a participating school

23 Study 2 Methodology Opportunistic data. All teachers from around Australia were invited to undertake the survey and there was a commitment from stakeholder groups to encourage all teachers to partake in Study 2 These teachers were asked to complete one survey instrument, e.g., they were allocated a survey These data were looked at separately to the selected sample and later added to be one cohort.

25 Element 2 of the Validation Study: National Focus Group Workshops One-day National Focus Group Workshops were held across the country The main focii was on: 1.how the Standards might be assessed, and 2.the identification of potential sources of evidence.

26 Workshops involved high-quality teachers for whom teacher relief was paid (funds were allocated for travel and accommodation to ensure participation of rural teachers) Members of professional associations and teacher educators involved in preparing primary and secondary teachers were also invited.

27 Sufficiently generic to represent practice at all school levels and in all jurisdictions. Sufficiently developmental to inform practice and aligned with evidence-based research into teaching and learning. Assessable in practice, i.e., there is evidence of the descriptor in teachers’ knowledge of educational research, theory and practice, and it is possible to make objective, reliable and valid judgments of that evidence. Questions framing the Workshops include whether or not the descriptors are:
