[edit] History
[edit] Purpose
PASS-PORT was designed to help Louisiana Collges and Universities meet NCATE accreditation standards for their Teacher Education programs. It assists administrators in collecting, aggregating, and reporting performance-based assessment data -- aligned to accreditation standards -- from a number of sources:
- File Artifacts submitted by students for review by a faculty member
- Professional Development Experiences
- Field Experiences with associated assessments from faculty members and participating teacher mentors
- Web Links to student works
- Student Self Assessments in the form of questionnaires
- Faculty Assessments of student performance
- Standardized Tests such as the Praxis battery
- Course Grades
It has a template-based design which allows administrators to design their own evaluation instruments and associate those measurements directly to standards. PASS-PORT also collects Demographic data on students, faculty members, and field experience participants. It also automates the review process associated with a student's transition points (which PASS-PORT calls a portal).
