Prerequisite(s): ECEL 410. Corequisite(s): ECEL 421. Special fee. This is a full-time full-semester clinical internship that follows the placement school calendar. Interns demonstrate their knowledge of child and early adolescent development and the significant role of families and communities with regard to children's learning by planning and implementing developmentally appropriate and culturally responsive curriculum in an inclusive elementary classroom. Focusing on the diverse needs of individual children, students develop, implement, and assess an integrated curriculum unit that incorporates State standards and emphasizes literacy across the curriculum. As reflective practitioners, students utilize multiple strategies to assess children's learning, classroom climate, and effective classroom management. Interns are responsible for the full range of teacher activities in the classroom and are expected to seek out parents, administrators, and school colleagues as resources.
