The Literacy
Portfolio
All
persons seeking a license to teach, administer, or
counsel students in early childhood through 12th grade
in the State of Wisconsin must have a portfolio to
demonstrate their competencies. Because the Marquette
University College of Education's reading teacher and
reading licensure program is based on the International
Reading Association's 2003 standards, all teachers
will organize their portfolios around the five IRA
Standards.
In
each required course, students will be asked to complete performance assessments.
Satisfactory completion of these assessments will
demonstrate that the teacher has met that particular
IRA standard. Each assessment, and the scored rubric,
must be included in the students' portfolio. Inclusion
of all 18 critical tasks required for the Reading
Teacher License with their scored rubric and 26 tasks
for the Reading Specialist License with their scored
rubric is required. All portfolios will be handed
in at the time that the license is applied for.
