Professional Practice Portfolio Framework
Goals and Outcomes
Our primary goal is to help new teachers understand the INTASC standards
and integrate them into their practices. Other goals include
providing a practical application of
the INTASC standards, integrating first-year
teacher's needs within the larger context of
teaching, establishing a clearer link between
mentoring strategies and INTASC standards,
and establishing a professional practice framework
available to any teacher trying to improve his/her practice.
From this, first-year teachers will develop a larger vision of
teaching as a profession and will understand the professional
development continuum; mentors will develop skills to coach
their mentees to higher levels of competence; and professional
portfolios will be produced that are performance-based, aligned with
the INTASC standards, and directly linked to student achievement.
