Early Childhood Education CalFTPA

Overview

The purpose of the Early Childhood Education California Formative Teaching Performance Assessment (ECE CalFTPA) pilot/field test is to collect validity evidence and feedback on the design of the draft assessment. Specifically, Commission-approved educator preparation programs are invited to try out the instructional cycles and related scoring rubrics with their candidates by embedding the cycles and rubrics within existing program requirements. Pilot/field test data—including feedback from surveys of participating teacher candidates, preparation program faculty, and assessors—will inform further revisions to the ECE CalFTPA. All candidate submission materials related to the pilot/field test will be kept confidential and secure.
