EDU 3570 Field Experience in a School Setting-Childhood/Special Education Program
This field experience will provide teacher candidates with supervised experiences with two different age groups within the range of grade levels for which the candidates are being prepared to teach. Teaching experiences in all content areas normally taught in the childhood classrooms with diverse student populations will be provided as well as opportunities for a gradual increase in the teacher candidates' responsibilities in the classroom. Childhood/Special Education teacher candidates will be under the supervision of certified master teachers. Evaluation will be based on field performance. A nine hour field experience per week is required. This course also helps to prepare teacher candidates for the edTPA, a performance-based assessment required for initial certification, by analyzing and applying the three tasks: (1) Planning for Instruction and Assessment, (2) Instructing and Engaging Students in Learning and (3) Assessing Student Learning.
