Student Success Triad:
Research, Assessment, and Curriculum Development
A Model for Praxis Preparation

Preparing Competent, Compassionate, Cooperative and Committed Leaders
The
Student Success Triad: Research, Assessment and Curriculum
Development, a Title III activity is designed to improve the
Praxis scores for pre-service teacher education candidates.
The Virginia State Department of Education has put in place
policies that require pre-service teacher education
candidates to pass Praxis I with a composite score of 532.
The goal of this project is to develop a model that can be
replicated among other teacher education programs at
Historically Black Colleges and Universities that will
assist teacher education candidates in passing the Praxis
examination. This will in turn address the critical shortage
of minority teachers in public school systems.
Praxis I Exam Preparation Plan
The Student Success Triad's Praxis I Exam Preparation
Program consists of an initial evaluation using a pre-test
and personal interview. After initial testing and
evaluation, a personalized test preparation plan is
developed for each student.
Purpose
The
purpose of the test preparation plan is to focus on each
weakness and transform them into strengths. Instructors and
students work as a team in exclusivity and hourly sessions
in the designated Praxis preparation lab. The most import
feature of the preparation plan is the individualized and
personalized approach that blends computer-aided tutorials
with one-on-one tutoring and small group basic skills
development workshops.
