This document describes the levels of proficiency for CSTP 5: Assessing Students for Learning. It outlines the key elements and descriptors for emerging, exploring, applying, integrating, and innovating levels of a teacher's ability to assess student learning. At the emerging level, a teacher is aware of assessment purposes and types. At the exploring level, a teacher experiments with different assessments and begins to analyze data. At the applying level, a teacher selects appropriate assessments based on understanding of purposes and uses assessment data to inform instruction. The integrating level involves designing comprehensive assessment plans and using data analysis to guide differentiation. The innovating level infuses ongoing assessments strategically to collect data on a range of learner needs.
