ELED 141C - Student Teaching Internship and Seminar (Grades 4-6)

Semester Hours: 3
Fall
This course provides an opportunity for close clinical supervision of teacher-education candidates teaching in cooperating schools across a range of grade levels and ability levels matching the certification requirements in the certification the candidate seeks to earn (7 weeks minimum). The purpose of this course is to facilitate pre-service teachers gaining experience in a public-school setting under the supervision of experienced state-certified teachers and in consultation with a Hofstra University supervisor. Student teachers develop and execute lesson and unit plans based upon New York State Standards for Learning and curriculum guides. Student teachers gradually assume full teaching responsibilities as they demonstrate competency. Student teachers are placed across the full range of grade levels and ability levels covered by the certification they seek. Student teachers must demonstrate proficiency in the fundamentals of teaching: content knowledge, lesson and unit planning, classroom management, communication and questioning skills, assessment practices and professional dispositions.

Prerequisite(s)/Course Notes:
