EDS 590 Student Teaching/Seminar High Incidence

This seminar focuses on collaboration, co-taught classrooms, and other inclusive

practices. The seminar explores characteristics of students with disabilities across IDEA

classification areas focused on high-incidence exceptionalities. The student teaching experience

affords candidates the opportunity to work with a multidisciplinary team to meet the concerns

and needs of children with high incidence exceptionalities. Candidates also work on daily

communication skills and collaborative techniques with families. Seminar sessions help the

candidate process, synthesize, and reflect on work in the classroom/school setting. Candidates share experiences and ask for critiques on work samples from peers and the professor. Guest speakers range from parents/parent advocates to administrators.
