Completing the last task of the TPA was such a relief for me
and I am sure it was for others as well. Throughout the program, the TPA was
definitely a challenge for me. It was something that I dreaded each time the
due dates were approaching because it was extremely lengthy, detailed and
repetitive. Each TPA that I have submitted numbered to almost forty seven pages. In sum, for
the TPA alone, I have written over two hundred pages of responses. I am sure others have
written that much, possibly more, as well. I have mixed feelings about the TPA.
Although the work was excruciating at times, the TPA definitely helped me with
differentiation strategies and also allowed me to think more critically on how
to plan instruction for a class with different types of learning needs. The repetition of the TPA taught me how important and crucial detail
is and I am just so relieved that the TPAs are over and done with.
