Project expectations Site visits Procedures for candidates seeking reading certification Project advice and support Technical advice and support Required Texts Individually assigned by supervisor, as relevant to practicum experiences. Priorities and practice at The Manhattan New School. Changing our minds. At the advanced graduate level, full attendance and participation are assumed. Candidates will participate as active members of their cohort as a learning community.
Attendance is essential to participation.
Active membership is characterized by the collegial, collaborative sharing of ideas and information to enhance the learning of all. Whenever possible, samples of work by previous candidates are on reserve in the library. The instructor demonstrates and provides a complete outline of assignments and, where appropriate, a rubric for grading the assignment. All assignments must be compatible with the social-constructivist model of literacy processes. Through their assignments candidates will establish a role of leadership and demonstrate effective communication of research and practice to a variety of audiences for a variety of purposes.
