IPTE 5910 - Internship and Site Seminar I

Teacher candidates engage in systematic observation of, participation in, design of, and reflection on curricular, instructional, and management practices across the full range of educational programs within a school (e.g., general and special education, bilingual education, Title I services, etc.). Additionally, teacher candidates participate in the activities of a school community (the school, its classrooms and the community in which the school exists). Graduated learning activities for each internship and time requirements are specified in the School Internship Handbook. In partner schools, the partner school site coordinator and the side professor are responsible for coaching and supervising teacher candidates, and for supporting the clinical teachers in their work with teacher candidates. Site coordinators and professor conduct site seminars focused on providing teacher candidates with information about the partner school context and support for success within that context. In internships outside of partner school settings, cooperating teachers, district coordinators, and/or university professors work with teacher candidates in the classroom and in seminars. Cross-listed with IPTE 4910. Max hours: 2 Credits. Semester Hours: 2 to 2
