What are the Praxis exams?

What is the Praxis Series of Tests?

You’ve made the decision to pursue a career in teaching and learn that at least one of the Praxis exams is required by most states for educator licensing and certification. What exactly is a Praxis exam?

Praxis Core Academic Skills

The Praxis Core Academic Skills for Educators is designed to measure knowledge and skills in reading, writing, and mathematics. A passing score on the Praxis Core is often required before a candidate begins a teacher education program. These three computer-delivered exams can be taken together for a 5-hour session or separately in 3 individual 2-hour sessions. 

  • The Reading exam includes 56 self-selected response questions focusing on comprehension, integration, and analysis of multiple passages.
  • The Writing portion is divided into two parts:  40 self-selected response questions assessing research strategies and revising and improving text and two writing tasks involving argumentative and explanatory writing types.
  • The Mathematics exam is comprised of 56 self-selected response or numeric entry response questions. To ensure math reasoning is assessed, an on-screen calculator is provided to alleviate errors in arithmetic.

Praxis Subject Assessments

The Praxis Subject Assessments are designed to ensure that prospective educators possess the skills and knowledge necessary to begin teaching. Some colleges and universities require these exams prior to the student teaching experience. The Praxis Subject Assessments encompass more than 90 subjects, specialty areas, and techniques. The exams can measure just content, just pedagogy, or both content and pedagogy as it relates to level (Early Childhood, K-6, 5-9, or 7-12) and/or subject area. Tests can range from 1 – 4 hours in length depending on the test, and the format can include self-selected response items and/or essay questions. 

You should check the ETS website to find out the praxis exams required in your state. 


Praxis Special Education: Core Knowledge and Applications - FAQ Sample Questions

You are a Special Education teacher who has a person that provides confidential guidance to you regarding your classroom management issues, instruction, the IEP process, and your school's culture and climate.  This person is known as which of the following?





Correct Answer:
mentor
the correct answer is: mentor.

mentors play a crucial role in the professional development and support system for teachers, particularly those working in specialized areas like special education. a mentor is typically an experienced individual who provides guidance, support, and advice to less experienced colleagues. in the context of special education, a mentor can be invaluable due to the unique challenges and requirements of the field.

in your role as a special education teacher, dealing with classroom management, the iep (individualized education program) process, and understanding the broader school culture can be complex and demanding. a mentor serves as a confidential advisor who helps you navigate these aspects effectively. this person provides insights not only based on their experience but also tailors their guidance to align with the specific needs and circumstances of your teaching environment.

additionally, a mentor can help you understand the political and social dynamics within your school, which is essential for integrating effectively into the school's culture and for advocating for your students' needs. this understanding can significantly influence how you manage your classroom and interact with other staff and administration.

mentors might also specialize in certain areas, such as curriculum development for specific subjects. this can be particularly beneficial if you teach specialized content or use specific instructional strategies tailored to the needs of your students with disabilities. such mentors can provide targeted advice on resources, instructional methods, and assessment strategies that are effective for diverse learners.

ideally, your interactions with your mentor will cover a wide range of topics including instructional techniques, case management, content-specific challenges, and navigating school politics. this comprehensive support not only helps in immediate problem-solving but also contributes to your long-term professional growth and effectiveness as a teacher.

LRE stands for_______________________________________.





Correct Answer:
least restrictive environment


lre stands for "least restrictive environment." this is an essential concept and requirement within the individuals with disabilities education act (idea), a federal law in the united states that ensures students with disabilities are provided with free appropriate public education (fape) tailored to their individual needs.

the least restrictive environment mandate requires that students with disabilities be educated alongside their non-disabled peers to the greatest extent possible. the principle behind lre is that students with disabilities should have access to the same educational opportunities as students without disabilities. this inclusion is only limited when the nature or severity of the disability of a student is such that even with supplementary aids and services, satisfactory education cannot be achieved in regular classes.

the lre setting is determined on an individual basis and is aimed at promoting the maximum possible interaction between students with and without disabilities, within an environment that is suitable for the educational needs of the student with disabilities. the spectrum of possible placements includes, but is not limited to, general education classes with support services, special classes, special schools, home instruction, and instruction in hospitals and institutions.

this requirement not only supports the civil rights of individuals with disabilities but also fosters an inclusive society. it emphasizes the need for schools to use their resources flexibly to adapt to the educational needs of students with disabilities. moreover, the lre is dynamic and may change as the needs of the student change over time, always focusing on the goal of maximum feasible integration.

ensuring education in the least restrictive environment helps to prepare all students for further education, employment, and independent living. it reflects the broader societal value of inclusivity and equal opportunity in educational settings and beyond.
