edTPA Prep: Tasks & Practice
edTPA is a performance-based teacher licensure assessment used by many states for initial certification. Candidates submit a portfolio across three tasks — Planning, Instructing, and Assessing — with artifacts, video, and written commentary. Here's how it works — with realistic COSMIQ practice.
COSMIQ helps you prepare for edTPA — it does not administer the assessment or issue a teaching license.
