_____ Mid-Term Evaluation						_____ Final Evaluation

The College of Education at the University of Wyoming uses a four-level rubric as a means of providing concrete feedback to candidates. Alignment among NCATE/NCTE rubric levels and those used by the College of Education are as follows: Distinguished aligns with Target; an overall ranking of Proficient aligns with Acceptable; Unsatisfactory aligns with Unacceptable.  This rubric is used for both mid-term and final evaluations. The mid-term evaluation, carried out at the halfway point of the residency semester, should give candidates feedback on their performance; this feedback should be used by candidates to improve their performance. In order to successfully pass this assessment, candidates must receive at least an overall Proficient level, which is defined as follows: no scores of Unsatisfactory; Basic scores may be received on only the following categories: 10 and 11. All other categories must receive at least a score of Proficient.

Use the Residency Semester Evaluation Rubric to evaluate the candidate’s work. Write in the appropriate score (D: Distinguished; P: Proficient; B: Basic; U: Unacceptable) for each outcome below.
