PSS 6807 School Psychology Advanced

This seminar accompanies the second semester internship field placement in which students are required to complete an additional internship experience of 600 hours in an approved program which addresses further refinement in the development of skills in assessment, learning theory, counseling and clinical and educational consultation and intervention. Students participating in this second semester internship experience areexpected to gain further independence as they carry out the various tasks critical to the role of the school psychologist. The purpose of the seminar is to provide students an opportunity to discuss their internship experiences as regards the role of the professional school psychologist. In addition, students will be exposed to current specialty topics in the field (e.g.; prevention and early intervention, response to intervention, evaluatingintervention effectiveness) and discuss how these ideas are applied in their settings.
