CORE CURRICULUM Community colleges offer core curriculum courses, and some major course requirements. Therefore, Appalachian will normally deliver only required upper-division courses to the cohort.

PROFESSIONAL CORE CURRICULUM CI/SPE 2800Teachers, Schools, and Learners PSY 3000Educational Psychology FDN 3800Foundations of American Education CI/FDN 3850Literacy, Technology, and Instruction SPE 4900Student Teaching (full-time semester) (12 semester hours. 15 week public school teaching experience in a special education classroom.)

PRAXIS II (taken during Student Teaching) PRAXIS II tests general and subject- specific pedagogical knowledge and skills as well as the special education concentration.
