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 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.
