This activity required that I collect and analyze candidate outcome data and program assessment data, interpret findings, and provide recommendations. 2010 In collaboration with a colleague in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry,

Dr. Seth Bush, I experimented with collaboratively teaching special education graduate students and undergraduate science majors in Dr. Bush’s Learn by Doing Science Lab.

2009-2010 I assisted my colleague, Dr. Mike Ruef, in developing a program that

supported Cal Poly students in Asperger’s syndrome (autism). 2009 I developed two hybrid courses for the Education Specialist Mild/Moderate Level II Program (EDUC 443 and EDUC 548) 2009 In collaboration with my colleague Dr. Mike Ruef, we revised the MA/Education

Specialist Mild/Moderate Level I Program to address changes identified in the 2008 biennial report

Program Coordination At the Department Level (College of Education and School of Education), I have been active in supporting overall Department Activities. As our department has suffered attrition over the course of my tenure, there have been increasing duties on each department member. Special education Coordination responsibilities are shared now across only two people, Dr.


Ruef and myself. Coordination and other departmental activities include but are not limited to:

o Report Writing: My colleague, Dr. Mike Ruef, and I have been responsible for the writing of all reports for various accrediting agencies, i.e., WASC, the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing, and NCATE. Together these reports equated to several hundred pages of text.

o Candidate Recruitment and Selection: Though my colleague, Dr. Mike Ruef, assumes primary responsibility for conducting information meetings for prospective applicants, we both answer telephone calls, conduct interviews and select qualified applicants.

o Mentor Teacher Recruitment and Selection: We do not have a teacher placement staff person. I am responsible for recruiting qualified special education mentor teachers, arranging school-based placements with districts throughout the county, and supporting mentor teachers who work with our candidates through meetings, phone calls and email communications. In addition, I have developed a School-Based Handbook that is updated annually.

o Advisement: Together with Dr. Mike Ruef, provide initial program planning advisement as well as program advisement for the special education candidates throughout the year, including monitoring candidate progress each quarter).

o Advisory Committee: Dr. Ruef and I meet with the Special Education Advisory Committee at a minimum of once a year. This meeting involves data collection and reporting, arranging the meeting, and providing follow-up based on results of the meeting (e.g., minutes and materials).

o Adjunct Professor Hiring and Support: As we have used adjunct faculty to help deliver our program over the course of our federal grant, Dr. Ruef and I have recruited potential part-time faculty, reviewed resumes of part-time applicants, recommended part-time faculty and supported hired part-time faculty to integrate their teaching with the needs of the special education program as well as the special education course (EDUC 440) for the multiple subject program.

o Program Evaluation and Program Exit Procedures: Dr. Ruef and I have completed all of the procedural paperwork necessary for special education candidates to receive their degrees and teaching credentials (e.g., Advancement to Candidacy, portfolio review, teaching credential exit form) as well as serve as readers for the Special Education Comprehensive Examination administered each year.

o Related Program Administrative Tasks: Dr. Ruef and I have worked collaboratively with the credential analysts, school districts, and County Office of Education. In addition, I have assumed responsibility for developing the Special Education Faculty Workload, with input from Dr. Ruef, every academic year.

o Other: I attend Fall Conference and the Education Graduation Ceremonies every year, hooding candidates receiving their masters degrees.
