Description

Successful Writing Strategies for National Board Certification leads National Board candidates through various strategies to help them write in the “National Board Style”. How a candidate writes about their teaching practice greatly impacts the success of their efforts to become a Board-Certified Teacher. Components the candidates submit depend on writing that is clear, consistent, and convincing. All the Scoring Rubrics are built upon those elements. This book gives many writing strategies, tips, and examples to lead candidates toward the goal of submitting work that meets the National Board Standards for accomplishment.
