Abstract: Used interviews and qualitative methods to examine the rhetorical difficulties that four teachers experienced in applying for National Board for Professional Teaching Standards (NBPTS) certification. Results found that the teachers had difficulty representing their knowledge about practice in writing. The most successful candidates were able to assume the NBPTS discourse values, which may be at odds with teachers' working knowledge. (SM)
