The first component is a 15 day placement in an approved special education setting or an inclusive program. The student will have the opportunity to observe, assess, plan and implement Learning Support Plans for students and children with a disability; to work within a multi-disciplinary team; to observe program support groups, individual family support plans and community based programs; to apply concepts of multi- element curriculum and differentiated practice. The second component is a series of professional enhancement workshops to be conducted by the university staff. There are 7 days in total and attendance at these workshops will count as part of the practicum placement. The workshops are designed to introduce and implement specific teaching approaches, discuss and apply techniques which students are likely to observe while on placement. |
