Sense Making and Professional Identity in the Implementation of edTPA

Abstract: edTPA is designed to strengthen teacher professionalization and provide a framework for program redesign. However, using a national assessment to shift the content of local programs is challenging because of their inherent organizational complexity. In this article, we focus on this complexity, using a systems lens to analyze edTPA implementation at a large, public university. Employing a mixed-methods case study design, we survey 250 teacher educators and candidates to understand how they interpret the demand… Show more

“…This is the first study to take an in-depth look at how the effects of immigration enforcement are manifesting in a critical portion of the teaching workforce, those who are new to the profession. By focusing on novice teachers, this study also connects these experiences to current efforts to improve teacher preparation, where TPPs are commonly seen as a critical policy lever (Hutt et al, 2020). This focus on new teachers is also important given that new teachers are more susceptible to stressors associated with increases in job dissatisfaction compared to teachers with greater experience (Zhang & Zeller, 2016), ultimately leading to burnout and turnover.…”
