National College of Education Competency Appraisal Assessment
Competency Appraisals are tools used to assess the progress of the teacher candidate during field experiences. The cooperating teacher, the teacher candidate, and the university supervisor (if assigned) each complete a competency appraisal related to the teacher candidate’s performance in the classroom. National College of Education is committed to assessing candidate performance on the basis of competence aligned to the Interstate Teacher Assessment and Support Consortium (InTASC) standards. These Competency Appraisals offer formative data for mid-course corrections and inform seminar instructors as they determine the final and official course grade. Competency Appraisals are completed by students, university supervisors, and onsite mentors. The ECE Competency Appraisal can be found on the ECE Student Materials page: https://nl.edu/national-college-of-education/current-students/program-handbooks-and- materials/ece- materials/
Sonia Sonia is web-based, placement management software that helps streamline the process of placing, tracking, and monitoring field placement data. This platform allows students, faculty/staff, supervisors, and onsite mentors to access placement records, complete Competency Appraisals, and upload support documentation.
