  6. Once you have your Four Year Resident Educator License and your job is in Ohio.... you will need to complete the Resident Educator Assessment (RESA)

  7. What is expected of Resident Educators? • Ohio House Bill 1, passed in 2009, mandated a new licensure system for teachers that included a Resident Educator license effective January, 2011.  • A four-year Resident Educator program of support and mentoring for new teachers will improve both teacher effectiveness and improve student learning. • Successful completion of the residency program will be required to qualify Resident Educators for a five-year Professional Educator license. 

  8. Ohio’s Licensure Tiers

  15. Years 3-4 Resident Educator

  16. YEAR 3-4 • All Resident Educators must attempt the RESA in year 3, and bank passed scores, retaking non-pass sections in year 4. • The RESA is a performance-based summative assessment. It is scored by Educopia. • Resident Educators must successfully pass the RESA and complete the requirements of all 4 years of the Ohio Resident Educator Program to qualify for a five-year professional license.

  17. The Test • There are four required Performance Tasks for the first time RESA candidates, using 11 rubrics. • ODE has a Tool Kit which has many support materials. https://education.ohio.gov/.../Instructional_Mentoring_Toolkit_June-2015. pdf.aspx

  18. Potential Inactivating Teacher Licenses Based on Unsuccessful RESA Attempts • The candidate can attempt the RESA three times. Upon three failed attempts, the license will be inactivated and the resident educator will be ineligible for one year for: • Advancement of the license to Professional License • Renewal or extension of the Resident Educator License • A one-year interim license

  19. Potential Inactivating Teacher Licenses Based on Unsuccessful RESA Attempts • The resident educator who failed a third RESA attempt must complete during the “remediation” year a minimum of 3 semester hours of coursework and supervised field/clinical experiences identified for growth based upon the RESA score report. • After the remediation year the resident educator may apply for a one-year interim license after verifying the coursework and superintendent recommendation.

  20. You will find the RESA is very similar to the edTPA which you completed during your Student Teaching.It is important to make use of all resources available to you in order to successfully complete the RESA during years 3 and 4 of your contract.

  21. Go to the Ohio Department of Education website to download the RESA handbook, and check the various support systems in place through ODE. http://education.ohio.gov/Topics/Teaching/Resident-Educator-Program/Resident-Educator-Teacher-ResourcesCheck with your school district to determine if additional support is offered through your district or through the county Education Service Center.Meet regularly with your mentor (a peer at your school) to assist you through the first four years of your contract.

  22. ONCE I HAVE MY 5 YEAR PROFESSIONAL LICENSE, WHAT DO I DO NEXT? • An Individual Professional Development Plan (IPDP) is created to support a variety of activities and professional development to strengthen your teaching • It does not have to be all college classes • It should align to the Ohio Standards for the Teaching Profession • A portfolio of all activities of your Professional Development should be maintained, including: • Your IPDP • CEUs (18 CEUs; each CEU is worth 1/3 of a semester hour) • Coursework transcripts (6 graduate credits) • Certificates
