Product Description
Accomplished Teaching is the most effectively aligned book with the NBPTS standards. It provides step-by-step support for NBPTS candidates and serves as an excellent resource for NBPTS support providers as well. This book includes a CD for additional resources and enhanced activities.
In addition, it will help those just entering the education field to understand the Standards of the teaching profession, and will help experienced teachers review and refine their practices against those Standards whether or not they choose to seek National Board Certification.

Just what I needed October 13, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought 3 books for the NBPTS. Each has been helpful. But if I could only buy one book, then I would probably buy this one. Accomplished Teaching is full of ideas and guiding points. It is also written with the mentor in mind. So while I am trying to figure out an entry I often read the mentor portion to give me further insight into what I might b missing.
Also I like having all of the forms on a CD for easy printing.

As the author of two books regarding National Board Certification, I read with interest this author's work on accomplished teaching. I found the content not only helpful, but well-researched and highly applicable to any instructor seeking to pursue excellence in classroom teaching.
Many such books are often pedantic tomes that offer little research, and even less practical usefulness. Not so this one. The author(s) have done their homework. Their bibliography is a 'who's who' of noted researchers in this field, and I cannot imagine any teacher--even one not pursing NBPTS certification--not picking up a wealth of helpful vitae from reading this book.
This work should be required reading in every university education program. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

I highly recommend this book for National Board Candidates and National Board Support Providers. I have been supporting National Board Candidates for many years and have found the tips highly helpful in creating a strong portfolio entry.
I wished I had this book when I was working on my National Boards.

I got started on my portfolio rather late (I do work best under pressure) and was stunned to pass in my first round (EA Science). This book clearly helped. It is full of powerful guides and lots of tools to use in preparing lessons as well as preparing the entries. I used the NBPTS Workbook by Mack-Kirschner first to get started then used this one while I drafted out my portfolio. I returned to the Workbook as I was refining my entries. Both were important. I did not find the CD particularly useful, as it mostly provided un-editable copies of the forms in the book. I used the first edition, which was published in 2004.

As a Candidate Support Provider, I have found "Accomplished Teaching" to be the most comprehensive and user-friendly book available to National Board Certification candidates. "Accomplished Teaching" takes the NBPTS standards and portfolio instructions and breaks them into meaningful and manageable chunks for teachers. Completing the National Board Certification process is a rigorous process and teachers need a resource like "Accomplished Teaching " to guide them. This book should be required reading for anyone going through the board certification process. In fact, it should be required reading for any teacher interested in improving their teaching practice!
