EDS 584 Special Education Practicum II

This full-time, six-week summer practicum placement focuses on a second disability category while enabling the candidate to act as a collaborative co-teacher in a special education environment. Candidates should also take EDS 583 Special Education Seminar II while enrolled in EDS 584 Practicum II.  Candidates participate fully in IEP development, monitoring, and planning, as well as attend IEP meetings. These experiences afford the opportunity to work with a multidisciplinary team to meet the concerns and needs of children and youth with disabilities. Candidates also work on daily communication skills and collaborative techniques with families leading to development of a parent engagement plan. The practicum supports candidates to address unit, state, and Council for Exceptional Children standards.
