What is the Praxis II?
All Wisconsin teacher education students must pass the content test to be eligible to student teach. Therefore, Benchmark II: Admission to Student Teaching in the School of Education requires candidates to pass the PRAXIS II content test for their specific teacher certification. PRAXIS II: Subject Assessments measure general and subject-specific teaching skills and knowledge in subjects that K-12 educators will teach. They include both multiple-choice and constructed-response test items.

On-Campus PRAXIS II Resources
University Library Resources
- UW-Stout's University Library has Praxis II study guides that can be checked out. They are located on the 4th floor of the main collection. If you cannot locate these materials, please contact the reference librarian for more information.
Praxis Tutor Office Resources (111 Heritage Hall)
- The Praxis Tutors Office has a number of Praxis II subject study guides that students can check out for one week (with the possibility of renewal). Please contact the Praxis tutors for more information about what guides are available for check-out as well as specific check-out policies.
- Additionally, the Praxis tutors can assist with general test-taking skills and test registration; however, because each Praxis II test covers specialized subject-content knowledge, the Praxis tutors cannot provide subject-specific tutoring for the Praxis II test.
Please contact the Praxis tutors to schedule an appointment: praxistutors@uwstout.edu.
Students can make an appointment during the designated "appointment hours" or drop-in during designated "drop-in" hours. Drop-in hours should be used for quick questions, to pick up materials, or to make an appointment.
