Part 2 – Evidence pages and Binder continued Guidelines page 35 • 2 pieces of evidence for each indicator (Standard B will have 34) • Practicum/Internship Evaluation Report cannot be used as evidence because it is same document as the PPA, but with each indicator rated rather than just the Standard • See pink pages for suggested evidence for each Standard • Evidence needs to be organized in a way that clearly shows the evaluator how the evidence demonstrates competency of the standard (goldenrod pages)
Part 2 – Evidence pages and Binder continued • One document can be used to demonstrate competency for several indicators; keep in mind that the binder should demonstrate quality of performance and depth of thought throughout the practicum experience • Include only evidence gathered from your time in the practicum • Fully describe the piece of evidence: • Lesson Plan #3 dated…. • Observation Report #2 dated… • Student Work, name of activity • Journal Entry, subject of journal entry and date • If creating a document, be specific. “Staff Handbook” or “Internet Policy” is not adequate evidence that you have demonstrated the competency. What did you do with the Handbook/Policy that demonstrates that you have met the competency? • Photos, if used, must include a description of what is being represented and be used sparingly. No more than one photo per indicator.
