Abstract
In this chapter, we present some of the fairness issues and legal implications of teaching performance assessments and the part these play in the licensure of educators. With reference to the United States and Australia, the chapter encompasses both technical features of such assessments from a legal perspective as well as public policy contexts and non-legal interpretations of fairness issues such as ‘opportunity to learn’, and processes and procedures in place to address potential injustice of decisions based on the assessment.
