@GovMurphy@NewJerseyDOE Does this apply to EdTPA? If not, please waive or eliminate completely EdTPA! It does not portray an accurate image of our practice as educators.
@GovMurphy Please waive the EdTPA requirement for all NJ. These are unprecedented times and under these circumstances the EdTPA req. do not define us as educators. The alternate evaluation is not a good portray of our abilities as educators. Please make it equitable for all! -JF

@RutgersAltRoute A2: Establish a good report with them and their parents. During BTSN, I informed their parents the importance of self-advocacy and methods they can help their child build up confidence in asking for help via email, conferences, in class, etc. #AltRtEd#SPED
