FOR EACH LISTED ASSESSMENT other than the GACE Content Assessment, use the UPLOADS hyperlink to
submit the assessment instrument, a brief description of how the assessment is used in this program, the scoring
guide, any documentation used by evaluators to score it, and any instructions distributed to candidates to assist in
taking the assessment. Also for each assessment, upload a data table showing three years of aggregated candidate
results (not for developmental reports) and a brief analysis of the data findings.
"Upload" means to transmit a file from your computer to the PRS server. To prepare for this upload, place the file in
a directory on your computer or network in a location you can easily find. For a fuller description of the upload
procedure, see pages 11 and 12.
Click on the Finished button ONLY AFTER ALL INFORMATION HAS BEEN ENTERED for all your assessments
and AFTER ALL DOCUMENTATION HAS BEEN UPLOADED for each assessment.

1. You may not enter data showing assessment relationships to standards (Section 3) unless assessments have already
been entered in this section. It is recommended that you enter ALL your assessments in Section 2 before proceeding
to Section 3.
2. PRS displays the assessments in alphabetical order, and this order may not be suitable for your work and future
presentations in View Mode. You may control the display order by using numbers as part of the assessment name.
