ECSE 4588 Clinical Practice II
This semester long course is a culminating experience in which pre-service teacher candidates take a lead role as a teacher teaching in the P-5 inclusion classroom. Pre-service teacher candidates will develop and implement lesson plans and instructional units linked to the Common Core standards. Pre-service teacher candidates will be active in the school environment, assuming the role and responsibilities of the classroom teacher. Pre-service teacher candidates will also attend scheduled seminars on related topics throughout the semester. Use of technology is required. This course is aligned with state and national standards.
Note: This semester long experience requires pre-service candidates to engage in a minimum of 300 hours in a P-5 school setting; while these hours are of upmost importance, the most critical component of this placement is the hands-on learning opportunity that occurs over the course of the semester.
