ED 330, 331, 332 Assessment of Record 1 Academic Professional Development Folio Level C [first field]

**Directions to Student: ** Candidates toward the end of their first practicum (i.e. Teacher Assisting) will provide their University Field Coordinator with four (4) Folders, which serve as the documentation for the Academic Professional Development Folio (APDF). The four (4) folders document the College of Education’s (COE’S) Conceptual Framework, including the Unit’s Mission. The Mission: //Teaching, Leading and Learning in a Democratic Society//. In addition, the INTASC standards (see Course Outcomes) will also be embedded within these folders. Each folder should contain a minimum of one (1) piece of evidence [i.e. evidence submitted must have been created prior to admittance into the COE]. The evidence provides documentation that the candidate knows, understands, applies, and articulates the COE’S Mission. In addition to the evidence, each folder will contain a reflection paper, approximately ½ to one full page in length. The reflection should state concisely the candidate’s rationale for placing the piece of evidence in the folder (e.g. candidate states why s/he personally believes that the piece of evidence demonstrates how an educator enhances the academic and personal potential of his/her students or what expertise does s/he possess that guides his/her practice each is based upon the COE’S definition of those particular value or belief statements). **The candidate should also provide an additional overall (personal) reflection [totaling 5 reflections] concerning the process of compiling Level C of the APDF [i.e. First Field Folio].** The following are the folders, including the elements to be assessed. [Note: evidence could be placed in multiple folders] **Folder 1: Teaching ** **Folder 2: Leading ** **Folder 3: Learning ** **Folder 4: In a Democratic Society ** **//Helps: //**candidates may use a piece of evidence in more than one folder (e.g. a lesson plan or a unit plan will address more than one folder and certainly more than one element/indicator contained within the folder).
