Abstract
The study
was conducted to establish the validity and reliability of teaching practice
assessment measures used for assessing studentteachers teaching skills in
senior secondary schools in Abia State. The study was guided by two research
objectives which were to determine the validity of the teaching practice
assessment measures and to determine the reliability of the teaching practice
assessment measures. The study adopted the Research and Development design. The

proportionate stratified random sampling technique purposively selected. The
instrument for data collection was the Teaching Practice Assessment Measure for
Student-Teachers (TPAMST). The instrument was face and factorially validated to
establish the construct validity. Reliability of Internal consistency was establish
for the instrument using the Cronbach Alpha. The result of the analysis showed
that Teaching Practice Assessment Measures for Student-Teachers (TPAMST) was
valid since the factor loading on the instrument ranged from 0.35-0.70 it was
also reliable since the internal consistency of the items ranged from 0. 7 and
above. Based on the findings of the study, it was recommended that the
instrument should be used in assessment of the student-teachers during their
teaching practice. Key words: Validity, Reliability, Teaching Practice
Assessment Measures, Student-Teachers, Teaching Skills
