Intern Handbook, edtpa handbooks and Making Good Choices Document. Course Policies: Note: Refer to the Teacher Education Handbook for Students for a comprehensive description of policies. General Policy: Students must abide by policies in the Clayton State University Student Handbook, and the Basic Undergraduate Student Responsibilities. The Student Handbook is part of the Academic Catalog and Student Handbook, which begins on page 6. University Attendance Policy: Students are expected to attend and participate in every class meeting. Instructors establish specific policies relating to absences in their courses and communicate these policies to the students through the course syllabi. Individual instructors, based upon the nature of the course, determine what effect excused and unexcused absences have in determining grades and upon students ability to remain enrolled in their courses. The university reserves the right to determine that excessive absences, whether justified or not, are sufficient cause for institutional withdrawals or failing grades. Course Attendance Policy: Students are expected to attend every day of the internship. If students miss a day they will be asked to make up the day(s) at the end of the semester. Interns should only be out if the reason is valid and excused. More than three unexcused absences may result in receiving a dispositions hearing or an administrative withdrawal from the course. The intern is expected to keep the log for attendance up to date in LiveText. It is a good idea for the mentor to regularly verify attendance. If the intern has to be out, the mentor and the Education Supervisor should be notified as soon as possible. Lesson Plans/: There will be no less than three formal observations; if possible, observations will be done with the content supervisor. When possible, there will be a debrief session right after the observation. Always have in mind where this debrief can take place. If debriefing is not possible right after the lesson, an appointment will be made. Announced : A completed CSU Lesson Plan is expected for each announced observation. The CSU lesson plan should be emailed to the instructor prior to the observation. There should also be a copy of the lesson plan available for the instructor when he/she arrives. Please have a place for the instructor to sit during the observation and a place to debrief after the observation. Have your notebook available for review. 3

Unannounced : If the observation is unannounced, the lesson plan used for the school/mentor will be appropriate for the observation. Participation in School Activities/Activity Log: An important aspect of your internship is to infuse yourself in the activities of the school and to take on the responsibilities of your mentor teacher. This includes, but is not limited to, attending school sponsored activities, attending staff/department/team meetings, participating in parent conferences, contacting parents, attending professional development opportunities, etc. You will be expected to keep a log of your activities during the semester and turn the log in to me at the end of the semester. It is also expected to have the log up to date at all times so that it is available in your notebook during observations. Mid-term Progress Report: The mid-term grade in this course will be issued according to the midterm schedule. Based on this grade, students may choose to withdraw from the course and receive a grade of W. Students pursuing this option must fill out an official withdrawal form, available in the Office of the Registrar, by mid-term. The last day to withdraw without academic accountability is stipulated on the Clayton State University academic calendar. *Because this course is an Internship a mid-term grade is not required. If you do not receive a mid-term grade, but would like to know how you are doing in the course at mid-point, please contact your supervisor. The last day to withdraw without academic accountability is Friday, March 4, 2016. Disruption of the Learning Environment: Behavior which disrupts the teaching learning process during class activities will not be tolerated. While a variety of behaviors can be disruptive in a classroom setting, more serious examples include belligerent, abusive, profane, and/or threatening behavior. A student who fails to respond to reasonable faculty direction regarding classroom behavior and/or behavior while participating in classroom activities may be dismissed from class. A student who is dismissed is entitled to due process and will be afforded such rights as soon as possible following dismissal. If found in violation, a student may be administratively withdrawn and may receive a grade of WF. More detailed descriptions of examples of disruptive behavior are provided in the Clayton State University Academic Catalog and Student Handbook starting on page 14. *Although they may not be disruptive, per Clayton State Policy, students may not bring children to the classroom.* Academic Dishonesty: Any type of activity that is considered dishonest by reasonable standards may constitute academic misconduct. The most common forms of academic misconduct are cheating and plagiarism. All instances of academic dishonesty will result in a grade of zero for the work involved. All instances of academic dishonesty will be reported to the Office of Community Standards. Judicial procedures are described beginning on page 19 in the section of the Academic Catalog and Student Handbook titled, Procedures for Adjudicating Alleged Academic Conduct Infractions. Missed Work: If students have extenuating circumstances which prevent them from completing their work, they must contact the instructor by email within 24 hours of the due date. Depending on the circumstances, the instructor may extend the deadline, assign a zero, or deduct points for work submitted late. When allowed, make-up work must be completed within one week of the due date. Standards for written work: All written assignments must be typed. Font size and type should be 11- or 12-point Times New Roman. All assignments should observe Standard English and be proofread for errors. Computer Requirement: The class meets in k-12 schools in the metro Atlanta area. The course does not meet on-line. Each CSU student is required to have ready access throughout the semester to a notebook 4

computer that meets faculty-approved hardware and software requirements for the student s academic program. For further information on CSU s Official Notebook Computer Policy, please go to http://itpchoice.clayton.edu/policy.htm Computer Skill Prerequisites: Able to use the Windows operating system Able to use Microsoft Office (e.g., Word, PowerPoint) Able to send and receive email using Microsoft Outlook or Outlook Express Able to attach and retrieve attached files via email Able to use a Web browser Use of Student Notebook Computers: Computers will be used in EDUC 4720 for communication and assignments.

Conceptual Framework: The mission of the Teacher Education Unit is to prepare professional educators who engage in reflective practice and who are competent, caring, committed, collaborative, culturally responsive, and prepared to teach diverse learners in an ever-changing society. For the complete CSU Teacher Education Unit Conceptual Framework, click here. Knowledge Base: Critical elements for effective teaching include the effective delivery of instruction, which includes the teacher s ability to address a variety of social, emotional and cultural needs of students as well as the management of both student behavior and classroom routines. Teachers are responsible for providing pupils with appropriate knowledge and skills to become well-educated, responsible members of society. It is critical that pre-service teachers have both the knowledge and authentic experiences for understanding how to develop quality-integrated instruction. Harold Porter (2003) indicates that in order for effective instruction to take place, teachers must use management practices that lead students to become effectively engaged in the learning. Porter also indicates that beginning teachers must have experiences that enable them to effectively deliver instruction that meets the needs of a variety of students. Professional standards: The content of this course syllabus correlates to education standards established by national and state education governing agencies, accrediting agencies and learned society/ professional education associations. Please refer to the course correlation matrices located at the following web site: http://www.clayton.edu/teachered/standards-outcomes Technology: The use of technology will be imbedded in daily assignments and course presentations. Specific attention will be given to the use of PowerPoint as an instructional tool, to the utilization of LiveText in maintaining electronic portfolios, and to the utilization of Internet sites as a source for creative and successful planning for instructional purposes. Diversity/Multiculturalism: How to address diversity among the adolescent middle school population is a major theme throughout the CSU Teacher Education curriculum. Diversity and multiculturalism are essential to the middle school philosophy, and are constant challenges to middle school educators as they create varied teaching and learning approaches. Meeting the individual needs of students in a multicultural classroom, including gender, race, religion, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, learning 5

styles, and stages of physical, social, and intellectual development, are incorporated as major components of every topic in the course s curriculum. Professionalism: Effective teachers are committed to a teaching philosophy of differentiated instruction and to the profession s Code of Ethics. Interns will demonstrate the proficiencies of differentiated instruction; will establish positive, supportive relationships and appropriate communication with students, colleagues, parents, community members, and outside agencies; and will maintain the highest standards of ethical behavior as stated in the PSC Code of Ethics. Standards: The course will address professional standards as outlined by the following: CSU Teacher Education Program Outcomes, National Middle School Association (NMSA), Interstate New Teacher Assessment and Support Consortium (INTASC), Georgia Performance Standards (GPS), and GA-International Society for Technology in Education (GA-ISTE). Professionalism is an area of continued emphasis throughout the senior internship experience. A record of students attendance, punctuality and general professional behavior will be kept. Refer to the Teacher Education Handbook regarding specific professional expectations related to professional dress and appearance.
