Teacher Work Sample (TWS) 6 & 7
The Teacher Work Sample contains seven teaching processes identified by research and best practice as fundamental to improving student learning. Each Teaching Process is followed by a TWS Standard, the Task, directions, and a Rubric that defines various levels of performance on the standard. The Standards and Rubrics will be used to evaluate your TWS. The directions help you document the extent to which you have met the standard.
You are required to teach a comprehensive unit. Before you teach the unit, you will describe contextual factors, identify learning goals based on your state or district content standards, create an assessment plan designed to measure student performance before (pre-assessment), and plan for your instruction. After you teach the unit, you will analyze student learning and then reflect and evaluate your teaching as related to student learning.
TWS Format
1. Complete a cover page that includes:
(a) your name,
(b) date submitted,
(c) grade level taught,
(d) your university,
(e) course number and title.
2. Provide a Table of Contents that lists the sections and attachments in your TWS document with page numbers. Be sure to number each page of the entire document.
3. Charts, graphs, and assessment instruments are required as part of the TWS document. You may also want to provide other attachments, such as student work. However you should be very selective and make sure your attachments provide clear, concise evidence of your performance related to TWS standards and your students’ learning progress.
4. A suggested page length for your narrative is given at the end of each component section. You have some flexibility of length across components, but
the total length of your written narrative (excluding charts, graphs, attachments and references) should not exceed twenty (20) word-processed pages, double-spaced in 12 point font, with 1 inch margins.
5. If you referred to another person’s ideas or material in your narrative, you should cite these in a separate section at the end of your narrative under References and Credits (not included in total page length). You may use any standard form for references; however, the American Psychological Association (APA) style is a recommended format.
6. In order to insure the anonymity of students in your class, do not include any student names or identification in any part of your TWS.
