The National Board for Professional Teaching Standards (NBPTS) has developed standards that define quality teaching in every subject and grade level. Consequently, many states and districts have invested heavily in National Board Certification, offering pay raises, bonuses, and paid leave for portfolio preparation.

Filled with activities, checklists, and other practical tools, this comprehensive resource leads teachers through each stage of the certification process to ensure that no deadlines are missed and that they meet all the requirements for applications, the portfolio, and the content assessments. Arranged around the five core propositions of the NBPTS, this invaluable guidebook includes Worksheets, scenarios, writing tips, and time management strategies Advice on videotaping and preparing portfolio artifacts Stories and experiences of other National Board Certification hopefuls A Frequently Asked Questions section at the end of every chapter This book is designed to help teachers understand the components of accomplished teaching as defined by the NBPTS, determine their readiness to enter into the National Board Certification process, and provide them with the skills needed to move through that process with confidence. Hopkins′s years of experience with the pitfalls and obstacles of National Board Certification will help teachers avoid the dreaded "If I′d only known" syndrome. Tailored to both teachers who are considering certification and those in the midst of the process, this practical manual is also an indispensable resource for principals, staff developers, and professors who support teachers through the certification process.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKNational Board Certification is a voluntary process for teachers who want to measure their teaching practice against the set of core propositions and teaching standards developed by the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards. Teachers describe, analyze, and reflect on their practice by providing evidence of their accomplished teaching through student work samples and videos. They also take a series of assessment exercises designed to measure their depth of knowledge about the subjects they teach. WHAT WORKS! provides a roadmap for National Board candidates by guiding them as they work through each of the four entries to be submitted. The chapters contain dozens of tips on "What Works!" and "Why These Work!." The tips are practical, specific, and written in a conversational style that is easy to read. WHAT WORKS! will guide candidates through the maze of requirements and prompts found in the four portfolio entries and help them prepare for the Assessment Center Exercises. WHAT WORKS! is designed to be the go-to handbook for candidates in any certification area.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKFor anyone who was a candidate for National Board certification or might be a candidate in the future, Certifiable: Teaching, Learning, and National Board Certification is a must-read book. Dr. Lustick (NBCT, 1998 & 2008) explores all aspects of the certification process in an accessible and meaningful style. Lustick uses his own considerable experiences as a science teacher, National Board candidate, National Board assessor, and educational researcher to provide evidence of NBPTS as an opportunity for professional growth. What are teachers learning from National Board certification? Dr. Lustick interviewed more than 140 teachers from 42 states to find an answer. In a report to congress, the National Research Council described Dr. Lustick's work as one of only two studies 'that objectively evaluated the impact of [certification] on teachers' practices.' Whether a candidate was ultimately identified as accomplished or not, David Lustick's research indicates that certification offers all candidates a chance to improve their practice. This book provides educational stakeholders an important resource for understanding NBPTS as a means to improve teacher quality in an environment of high stakes testing.
