New Writing Assessment Policy

The College of Education Writing Assessment

Beginning in September 2006, all candidates enrolled in or pursuing undergraduate programs leading to initial certification are required to take the College of Education Writing Assessment during Phase 1 of their education program. Candidates who do not pass the College of Education Writing Assessment will not be approved for field placements or clinical experiences that are coordinated through the Center for Teacher Preparation and Partnerships. Candidates who do not pass the Writing Assessment are subsequently provided with the following 3 options to demonstrate competence in literacy skills and be approved for clinical and field experiences:

1. Passing the College of Education Writing Assessment on subsequent attempts; or,

2. Enrolling in and passing LTED 305: Literacy Workshop for Pre-Service Teachers, with a grade of B or better; or,

3. Passing the PRAXIS Pre-Professional Skills Test: Writing (0720), with a score of 4 or better.

Note. With regard to LTED 305, the College of Education Writing Assessment will be administered in the course and constitute a portion of the final grade.
 
STUDENTS ENROLLED IN LTED 305 MAY NOT REGISTER FOR THE WRITING ASSESSMENT DURING THE SEMESTER THEY ARE TAKING THE COURSE. THE FINAL EXAM IS THE WRITING ASSESSMENT.
