What are expectations for implementing scoring?
Teaching Events that do not meet the passing standard or that are just above the passing standard (i.e., have at least one score of 1) should be double scored. In addition, a random sample of 10 % of the remaining Teaching Events should also be double scored to check reliability. There should be an appeals process available to students. The appeal is not on the score, but on a failure to follow the procedures for scoring outlined in the PACT Technical Report approved by the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing or subsequent modifications set out in the current Implementation Handbook. If programs have a writing standard that candidates should meet in any major assignment submitted, the standard can be applied either as a prerequisite to accepting the Teaching Event or alongside the PACT rubrics. PACT will not develop a consortium-wide writing standard, as any writing standard should be applied across major assignments, not just to the Teaching Event.
