Student Teaching Assessment Philosophy
Student Teaching is a professional experience designed to be the transition from the role of student to Special Education Teacher. The primary channel for professional growth during this experience is the regular and continuing cooperation and assessment among the student teacher, the cooperating teacher, and the university supervisor. National College of Education is committed to assessing student performance on the basis of competence. The Competency Appraisal is one component of the final grade for student teaching. It also serves as one of the Special Education program’s Assessment System Checkpoints and will become a part of the student’s permanent record at the university.
