1. DAILY ATTENDANCE AND PARTICIPATION: 5 points per class period.
2. KTS PORTFOLIO PROJECT (Based on all KTS): students are to assemble the evidence to complete a portfolio based on the KTS and develop rationales to explain how and why they chose each piece of evidence. Students will present their portfolios to faculty for review by various professors.
3. CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT PROJECT (KTS IV): Students will complete a multifaceted project to include a theorist presentation with class handouts, an overhead
transparency, a grid exercise, and a management plan. A rubric with assignment specifics will be provided.
4. In addition to preparing a test for the unit of study, another assessment project will be individual preparation of an exam based on material in the student teaching handbook. Commercially prepared assessments are unacceptable for pre- or post-assessments. 5. PROFESSIONAL GROWTH PLAN:
This project should follow the state prescribed format. Forms will be distributed. Please take this assignment seriously. Confirm with CAP 3 portfolio guidelines.
6. Students will have placements arranged by the Director of Student Teaching in schools with qualified cooperating teachers and must spend 20 hours in those placements during this semester (10 and 10 if two placements.)
ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS: To complete CAP 3 requirements, all students are required to have liability insurance, a (current within two years) TB Test, a Physical Exam (form is on SE website), and a Federal (FBI) criminal background check with fingerprints (which may be done at the local police department--$10, then forwarded directly to the FBI--$18). The FBI check is also done through the superintendent’s office for each school corporation, usually $39-40. Taylor County is an exception. Failure to complete these items may result in a delay of the Student Teaching experience.
Also, students who have not yet taken their appropriate Praxis II exams, including the PLT, are required to do so prior to student teaching. The Praxis II results/scores will not stop a program at this time.
ASSIGNMENTS: Assignments are due at the beginning of class on the date assigned. Late papers will automatically receive a lower grade. Assignments not submitted within a week will
be accepted only at the instructor's discretion. Anticipate having to complete a late assignment form if assignment is not completed on time.
DISABILITY: Campbellsville University is committed to reasonable accommodations for students who have documented physical and learning disabilities, as well as medical and emotional conditions. If you have a documented disability or condition of this nature, you may be eligible for disability services. Documentation must be from a licensed professional and current in terms of assessment. Please contact the Coordinator of Disability Services at 270-789- 5192 to inquire about services.
PLAGIARISM: Campbellsville University’s policy on Academic Integrity states: “Each person has the privilege and responsibility to develop one’s learning abilities, knowledge base, and practical skills. We value behavior that leads a student to take credit for one’s own academic accomplishments and to give credit to others’ contributions to one’s course work. These values can be violated by academic dishonesty and fraud.” (2003-05 Bulletin Catalog, p. 35.)
Plagiarism and cheating are examples of academic dishonesty and fraud and neither will be tolerated in this course. Plagiarism is quoting or paraphrasing a phrase, a sentence, sentences, or significant amounts of text from a web or print source, without using quotation marks and without a citation. The plagiarist submits the work for credit in a class as part of the requirements for that class. Examples of cheating include cheating on a test (copying someone else’s paper) or an assignment (e.g., development of a lesson plan) and submitting the work as your own.
If a student commits plagiarism or cheats in this course, the professor will decide on one of two penalties: (a) an F on that assignment or (b) an F in the course. The student’s Dean and the Vice-President for Academic Affairs will be notified of either consequence.
DEC 7
First student teaching seminar is the day and time scheduled for course final exam.
GRADES: Grades are calculated by a combination of factors. Daily participation accumulates 5 points per day. Those points combined with points noted as + points will combine to determine the class participation grade. Accumulating a percentage of the total points possible at 90%=A, 80%=B, etc. to earn a letter grade calculated as 4/17 of the total course grade. Other activities directly earn a letter grade that is 1/17 or 3/17 of the total course grade.
Letter grades are averaged by the following values:
A =12 B- 8 A- 11 C+ 7 B+ 10 C 6 B 9 ****************************** 4@12=48 4@9 =36 120 9@6 =36 17 =7.05 =C+ 12 0
