Intrnshp I: Bilingual Setting

Catalog description

The course is designed to enable the prospective bilingual guidance counselor to become familiar with the environmental and sociological aspects of the urban/suburban school setting. Directed observation will be made within the schools. Field experiences will consist of guided and supervised experiences in schools with non-English speaking populations. It is expected that the student will move from an observation to a participatory role at the discretion of the bilingual site supervisor during the course of the fieldwork. The school based supervisor will be a certified bilingual school counselor. Students will participate in a weekly seminar class at the college. The college supervisor will visit the school at least once during the internship. One hundred fifty hours of internship participation is required.
