This is the second part of the clinical practice/internship experience for science certification. Candidates take this course as a part of a two-semester sequence after successful completion of Internship I. Developmentally appropriate content, strategies, and methods of instruction will be discussed with emphasis on the implementation in the internship II placement. This course also requires a full-time placement in an educational setting appropriate for the intended certification area. Students work toward mastery of attitudes, techniques, and professional practices for successful teaching. A college supervisor and a field-based professional provide supervision. This course addresses specific N.H. state standards for certification in the following content areas: Mathematics 5-8 and Mathematics 7-12 and the Professional Education Standards (N.H. Standard Ed 610).
