"Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." -George Santayana

Face-to-Face Seminar Meetings: This course meets eight (8) times (8 total hours face-to-face) throughout the semester.  During these meetings, interns debrief their clinical experience and make connections between coursework and classroom practice.  Students continue to use the TAP Instructional Rubric and the college Professionalism Rubric introduced in Clinical Experience I.

 

Internship: This course requires 1 full day per week of internship in a 6th-12th grade classroom setting for a minimum of 12 weeks AND a minimum of 75 hours.  Interns are expected to follow their Intern Mentor Teacher’s contract hours.  The internship component provides opportunities for interns to engage as a teacher and learner.  In these settings, interns observe and interact with students one-to-one, in small groups, and as a whole class.  Clinical experience emphasizes focused observation, co-planning with a placement teacher, and co-teaching.  The clinical placement provides a setting for applied projects required by concurrent education coursework in Block 2 (Term 6) of the Professional Teacher Preparation Program.
