Practicum II Course Requirements



Notes
                  Competencies 1, 3, 6, 7, and 8 are addressed within the BRI/Case Study.
                  Competency 8 is also addressed via the elements of the SEA.
*Originals are submitted to the Office of Clinical Studies, copies are returned to the student.
Additional Requirements
o   Submission of Placement Details Form
o   Completion of clinical hours -  Failure to complete the required hours will result in automatic failure of the course.
o   Seminar Attendance - Regular and prompt class attendance is an essential part of the educational experience.  All students are expected to attend every scheduled meeting of each class on time. Students who miss one or more seminars may receive a grade of FA (Failure due to Absence). Students accept full responsibility for ensuring that work does not suffer from absence.
o   Points may be deducted from any written assignment due to errors in grammar and/or mechanics.
o   Journal - The journal is the student’s personal record of observations made based on the clinical setting.   Minimally observations will include at least 2 entries from the classroom, 2 entries during assessment of the student, and 2 entries during the tutoring- one from the beginning and one from the end. The journal will be submitted for grading and will be reviewed by the course instructor.  Entries in the journal may be used for seminar discussions and therefore, should be brought to each seminar. Journal entries should focus on program competencies 1-12 and should reflect best practice, connections to seminar discussions and articles read.   Journal will use 3 column format and is seen in the following example:

Observation
Reflection
Questions Raised/ Answers Attempted


o   Description of How Learn Children Learn to Read – The paper will include connections to the clinical placement, articles read, personal experience and the seminars.
o   Resource Material Review –You will be required to identify three reading skills and in class discuss the strategies used to teach these skills. You may visit the ED Lab or Teacher Center or conduct your investigation using on-line resources.  

ALL ASSIGNMENTS ARE DUE NO LATER THAN THE LAST DAY OF THE SEMESTER:  FAILURE TO SUBMIT ASSIGNMENTS BY THAT DATE MAY RESULT IN RECEIVING A LOWER GRADE FOR THE WORK.
