0 Credit(s)
SPED 312 provides candidates with 100 hours of supervised clinical practice in a Special Day Class (SDC), Resource Class (RSP) or Non Public School (NPS) to observe and work with diverse K-12 and through age 22 learners. During these clinical hours, candidates will learn from and work with a highly qualified mentor teacher through purposeful, planned interactions, guided observations and initial student teaching (e.g., co-planning and co-teaching, or guided teaching). Candidates will be evaluated three times against the Teaching Performance Expectations (TPEs) through lesson observations by a fieldwork supervisor. SPED 312 is a Pass/Fail 0-unit course with 100 hours required. Candidates must fulfill all course and hours requirements prior to progressing to student teaching.
