The conceptual framework contains a clinical
program including practica for pupil services and administrative
programs and for prestudent teaching, student teaching and
other supervised clinical experience in prekindergartren through
grade 12 school settings. |
|
Pre-student Teaching
Program requires onsite supervised clinical
experiences that occur prior to student teaching, are developmental
in scope and sequence and occur in a variety of school settings. |
|
The prestudent teaching experiences
result in candidates demonstrating knowledge and understanding
of the 10 Teacher Standards through assessments of:
- communication skills,
- human relations and professional dispositions,
- content knowledge,
- pedagogical knowledge,
- teaching practice
|
|
Successful performance is measured
using both of the following:
1. At least 2 written evaluations of each candidate
based upon observations by the cooperating teacher and the
SCD supervisor. |
|
| 2. The candidate’s portfolio. |
|
Student teaching
The program requires experiences that are developmental
in scope and sequence, occur in school settings and meet Wisconsin’s
statutory requirements. |
|
| The student teaching experience is
for full days for a full semester following the daily schedule
and semester calendar of the cooperating school, or equivalent
as determined by the state superintendent. |
|
| Student teaching experiences provide
candidates opportunities to interact with an adapt instruction
for pupils with disabilities or other exceptionalities. |
|
| As a result of the student teaching
experience, candidates demonstrate knowledge and understanding
of the 10 Teacher Standards through the assessments. |
|
Successful performance of student
teaching is measured using all the following:
1. A minimum of 4 classroom supervisory visits
of at least one hour in length made to each candidate teacher
by the SCD supervisor, Supervisors with teaching experience
and expertise in the specialty subject area and at the grade
level of pupils being taught by the student teacher must participate
in the classroom supervision. |
|
Student teaching
2. At least 4 written evaluations of each candidate
based upon classroom observations by the cooperating teacher
or by the SCD supervisor. At least one of the evaluations
is written by the cooperating teacher. Evaluation procedures
- Conferences involving the student teacher,
the cooperating teachers and the SCD supervisors
- The cooperating teacher’s evaluation
of the student teacher/intern becomes part of the candidate’s
portfolio
- Other evaluations by PK-12 professional school
personnel that attest to the competency of the candidate
as a prospective teacher may also be included in the portfolio.
- The student teacher determines the evaluations
that may be available to prospective employers.

|
| A review of the required student
portfolio. |
|
Practicum
Programs for pupil services and administrative
licenses include supervised practica in the area of licensure
that are developmental in scope and sequence. |
|
| The IHE can demonstrate that as a
result of the practicum experience, a license candidate possesses
knowledge and understanding of the Wisconsin Administrative
or Pupil Services standards. |
|
Practicum
Successful performance of the practicum is measured
by all of the following:
1. At least 2 written evaluations by the school-based
supervision based upon observations; |
|
| 2. At least 2 written evaluations
by the SCD supervisor during each student’s practicum; |
|
| 3. 2 conferences involving the school-based
supervisor, the SCD supervisor and the practicum student; |
|
| 4. The school-based supervisor’s
evaluation of the practicum is part of the student’s portfolio. |
|
Graduate Internship Program.
1. Advanced programs include a graduate internship
in the area of licensure that is developmental in scope and
sequence. |
|
| 2. As a result of the intern experience, a license
candidate demonstrates knowledge and understanding of the Wisconsin
Teacher/Administrator/Pupil Services Standards, as appropriate. |
|
| 3. Supervision and primary responsibility for
the student rests directly with the licensed local school district
supervisor and indirectly with the college or university supervisor. |
|

framework describes the institution’s requirements for
