Surveys were conducted of two multi‐state samples of educators, who provided ratings of the importance of two preliminary versions of the classroom performance assessment criteria being developed for The Praxis Series: Professional Assessments for Beginning Teachers™. There was considerable agreement about the importance of the criteria across several classifications of educators according to ethnicity, instructional level, years of teaching experience, subject area, and orientation to teaching.
