GED 688C - English Language Learner Endorsement Practicum

This course is designed for students pursuing an additional endorsement in English Language Learner. In this practicum, graduate students work as ELL student teachers providing direct instruction to students who are English learners in a public school setting. Working teachers may complete a job-embedded practicum provided that they directly instruct English learners and are able to demonstrate they have met the endorsement competencies. Participants will be provided supervision and guidance from both a cooperating teacher (located on site) as well as a Saint Michael’s College supervisor who will make frequent visits to the school throughout the practicum. Participants will be expected to be present in a local school 3 full days/week for 13 weeks.

Credits: 4 cr.
