SOURCE: U.S. Department of Education—Release 2. 2000. The Initial Report of the Secretary on the Quality of Teacher Preparation. Washington, DC: Office of Postsecondary Education, U.S. Department of Education.
Appendix A: Complete List of Praxis Tests, Scores, and State Cut Scores: 1998–99
This appendix contains a listing of the Praxis assessments used by states in the teacher certification and licensure process. The Praxis Series, or Professional Assessments for Beginning Teachers, was developed and is administered by the Educational Testing Service (ETS).
There are 3 components of the Praxis Series: Praxis I—Academic Skills Assessments; Praxis II—Subject Assessments/Specialty Area, Professional Knowledge, and Core Battery tests, the Principles of Learning and Teaching (PPLT), and the Multiple Subjects Assessment for Teachers (MSAT); and Praxis III—Classroom Performance Assessment. The Academic Skills Assessments include the Pre-Professional Skills Tests (PPST) and the Computer-Based Testing (CBT) program, both of which measure basic proficiency in reading, writing, and mathematics. States set their own cut score or minimum passing score for their test takers.

Appendix B: List of NES-Developed State Tests: 1998
This appendix contains a listing of the assessments administered by the National Evaluation Systems, Inc., for the teacher certification and licensure process. NES developed individual assessments series for 10 states, including Arizona, California, Colorado, Illinois, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Mexico, New York, Oklahoma, and Texas. Oregon uses the basic skills portion of the California assessments in their teacher certification and licensure process. NES assessments evaluate basic skills, professional knowledge, and subject matter knowledge. States set their own cut score or minimum passing rate for their test takers.
