Description:
The third of three pedagogy courses in the English, Secondary Certification 7-12 major, this course completes the professional preparation students require prior to entering the student teaching semester. Students will practice direct applications of the practical and theoretical skills obtained in EDFN 290 and ENGL 426 and will apply elements of advanced pedagogical knowledge in sustained and intensive simulated and/or real classroom environments. Students will write frequently about their reading and other forms of pedagogical learning, complete one sustained piece of pedagogical research that results in a paper of 6-8 pages, and create a full curriculum unit that includes all elements needed to meet NCTE and INTASC standards and to demonstrate mastery of relevant pedagogical planning knowledge. This course is designed to meet the Stage 3 Field Experience Competencies outlined by the Pennsylvania Department of Education. A field placement is assigned, and the completion of field hours is required. All field clearances are required to be submitted to the Office of Partnerships, Professional Experiences and Outreach prior to the end of the first week of the semester. Failure to submit clearances as required will result in a withdrawal from the course and the field placement. This class is available for graduate credit.
