Teacher testing was adopted in Ohio in 1985. Currently, the State of Ohio requires that candidates take the Praxis II tests as a condition of licensure. The tests were designed to determine whether a candidate has the minimal knowledge and skills necessary to teach. Beginning in the Fall of 2003, the Division of Education requires successful completion of the appropriate Praxis II content test prior to student teaching and passage of the Praxis II Principles of Learning and Teaching during the student teaching semester. The tests required in the State of Ohio for each licensure area and the cut scores are list in the "Praxis II Requirements" in this section. LINKS |
