As more educator preparation programs (EPPs) adopt edTPA as a teacher candidate performance assessment in their programs, a new set of robust and informational data emerges. As an educative assessment, performance assessment data can be used by EPPs in multiple ways. This chapter identifies five constellations of edTPA data use: teacher candidate readiness, curriculum revision, program assessment and accreditation, predictive validity, and continuous program improvement. Each constellation is rooted in both practice and research and provides strategies for how EPPs may leverage edTPA for multiple purposes within their programs.

In this chapter, the authors share the history of a video capture and annotation technology (VCAT) implementation and provide summaries of research findings to support its continued use and refinement. They also detail the multiple uses and particular objectives they aimed to meet with the technology across different content areas and even across multiple educator preparation programs, including a collaboration between a teacher education program and principal preparation program that was enabled by the technology.
