- Abstract
An upcoming mandate that will greatly impact teacher education will require teaching candidates to pass the Teacher Performance Assessment in order to be certified. In Washington and Illinois, this policy has already been adopted. This mandate is also being considered by 19 other states. Washington's additional edTPA component on student voice adds another layer of expectations for the teaching candidate. In this paper, an overview of the edTPA will be presented to increase a general understanding of the instrument and its origin. A discussion on student voice will follow including identifying the Washington-specific student voice criteria. Two instruments, that this researcher designed to assist teaching candidates with implementing student voice effectively in order to better-meet the student voice criteria of the Washington State Teacher Performance Assessment, will also be included.
