AYA_MA Portfolio Rubric

Content Knowledge (Strand 1)

Teacher candidates and candidates for professional school roles are knowledgeable in their chosen fields.

This strand represents our commitment to assuring professional educators and candidates are knowledgeable in their chosen fields and can impart this knowledge to help all students learn. This knowledge is not limited to known and existing information, but includes the ability to generate and understand innovations in the field, and the possession of the skills and dispositions necessary to remain current in the field. Content Knowledge includes a broad general foundation in the arts and sciences, as well as a depth of knowledge appropriate for each level of expertise in a specific field. Content Knowledge is essential for critical thinking and problem solving in a professional role.

Portfolio evidence demonstrates…

UNACCEPTABLE (1) / ACCEPTABLE (2) / TARGET (3)
Evidence displays minimal ability to use content knowledge to aid learning for diverse populations. / Evidence displays average ability to use content knowledge to aid learning for diverse populations. / Evidences displays above average ability to use content knowledge to aid learning for diverse populations.
CONTENT KNOWLEDGE TOTAL =

Content Knowledge interweaves with the other five strands in the Conceptual Framework to develop the art and science of teaching/leadership/counseling. Content Knowledge is necessary to make appropriate pedagogical decisions based upon one’s knowledge of diverse groups, of technological applications to support learning, of emotional intelligence to establish rapport and communicate effectively, and of the qualities and dispositions of a professional educator.
