Week 2 Standards and evidence
Building your professional persona and portfolio
WALT We are learning to….Consider the teaching standards by which you will
be assessedUnpack the idea of ‘evidence’ against the National
standards Review the work done to date on the e.portfoliosShare the second set of strategies learned through
Set for SuccessReview own progress for input into an ILP
Knowledges and Skills
You are on the selection panelThe teacher – what qualities tell you they’re a good great teacher? The portfolio – what’s in it?
Organisation of the standards
There are seven standards which are grouped into three domains:
Professional Knowledge
Professional Practice
Professional Engagement
Organisation of the standards
Professional Knowledge
Professional Practice
Professional Engagement
Standard 1Know students and how they learn
Standard 3Plan for and implement effective teaching and learning
Standard 6Engage in professional learning
Standard 2Know the content and how to teach it
Standard 4Create and maintain supportive and safe learning environments
Standard 7Engage professionally with colleagues, parents/carers and the community
Standard 5Assess, provide feedback and report on student learning
Overview of the standards
The short animation below provides a brief introduction to the development, purpose and content of the standards.
The explanation and description of each of the seven standards will help you think about and identify the knowledge, skills and engagement behaviours expected of teachers in the 21st century.

ACTIVITYWork together to brainstorm list of possible
sources of evidence for each Standard. Ensure you consider each of the descriptors in
the focus areas listed under a particular Standard.
Distinction between “folios”Working portfolio - your folder that documents all
EPL experiences for use at your teaching school
Professional portfolio – requirement for EPL 3, 4 and 5 in the form of an e-portfolio – See the requirements outlined in the course profile and EPL 3 Pre-service Teacher Guidelines
Professional Folio - Folio for EQ teaching positions - a folio that shows how you meet the EQ selection criteria for a teaching position.
Four steps in developing your Professional Portfolio – e-portfolioCollecting, categorising and annotating evidence
based on the Australian Professional Standards for Teachers
Selecting the best evidence
Reflecting on your selection
Organising and presenting your portfolio
Categorising the evidence
Decide on a format for organising your evidenceAccording to each standardAccording to major themes in the standards e.g.
Professional Knowledge, Practice and / or Engagement
Selecting evidence
Select inclusions in your portfolio on the basis of:The extent to which a work sample demonstrates
multiple descriptorsThe impact on student learning and outcomes
Aim to demonstrate evidence of each standard progressively. This will subsequently inform your Pre-service Teacher Self-Evaluation midway through the assessable block.
Annotating the evidenceAttach an annotation recording
information that will help you select your best examples for each standardDate, year level, curriculum areaReflection on:
What the sample reveals about your ability to demonstrate the chosen descriptors
The strengths and areas for development revealed in the sample
What you learnt that will impact on student learning, your practice and ongoing professional development
Reflecting on your evidenceThere should be critical reflection on each piece of
evidence showing how it links to one or more descriptors of the APST.
The reflection should include: (a) contextual information (b) a critical analysis of what the sample reveals about the
knowledge, practice or engagement embedded in the standard descriptors
ACTIVITY Annotations – what standard/s? What else could you add to this annotation? Annotation – Example 1The comments recorded on these samples of
students Maths work illustrate the approach I take to formative assessment. By providing feedback during the lesson I helped this student to understand how to work through the problem using mathematical reasoning. This enabled the student, as demonstrated in the sample of her completed work, to successfully finish the set tasks for the unit.
Annotation – Example 2
With the introduction of the new History curriculum, I became aware that my lack of knowledge of the content of the curriculum and history pedagogy was a concern. Because it was a new area for many of my colleagues, it was difficult to get support in the staffroom. I decided to join the History Teachers Association as a means of engaging more with the learning area. I attended an excellent workshop on engaging with the local area as a means of helping students engage with history and history concepts and decided to organise an excursion to the nearby historical cemetery for my Year 5 class as part of the unit on the region’s early settlers.
Scope of the evidence Achievement of each of the Standards Take account of each of the descriptors for the focus areas One piece of evidence can address multiple descriptors
within and across the 3 domains• Show the impact of your practice on student learning
Note that for EPL 3 and 4, the assessment package clearly describes the evidence you need to demonstrate and the quality of that evidence at either EPL 3 level and finally Graduate level
