EDUC 709 - Student Teaching Experience Credit(s): 3 3 semester hours Prerequisite(s): Completion of 30 credits of coursework Passing score on the CST in the major degree area. The professional semester is comprised of the student teaching experience and the corresponding seminar. It is considered the capstone course of the graduate education program. Student teaching is defined as a full-day, full-time, school-based experience that is supervised by both certified, experienced teachers and a college field supervisor. The experience is designed to reflect the reality of the classroom. The weekly seminar addresses issues relative to the INTASC Standards for Licensing Beginning Teachers. Therefore, pertinent issues and topics related to the expectations expressed in the Standards will form the basis for presentations, group discussions and/or video analysis. Specific emphasis will be placed on reflective journal. Candidates must submit an edTPA examination to Pearson as one of the course requirements. A candidate will not pass the clinical practice course without submitting proof of his or her edTPA submission in the form of a receipt from Pearson by the end of the semester’s grading period. If a candidate does not submit an edTPA receipt prior to the end of the semester, he or she may request an incomplete grade in the course from the clinical supervisor. Once the edTPA receipt is submitted to the supervisor, the incomplete grade will be changed to the grade earned in the course based on the grading criteria outlined in the course syllabus. After a year, an Incomplete will become permanent and a teacher candidate must retake the course to receive credit. Candidates with an I-20 are exempt from this requirement. Online students living within 60 miles of a Mercy Campus must register for this course on an in-person basis. Requires Director’s approval
