In general clinical settings, students are able to practice appropriate examination, evaluation, and intervention, technical, and communicative skills. Safe, ethical, and legal educational practice occurs under the supervision of clinical instructor(s).

Interns spend five full days a week in a school observing and teaching under the direction of a mentor teacher and a university instructor or supervisor. Interns will take on full classroom responsibilities. Internship II student teaching experience is viewed as a critical professional step as individuals mature into the role of independent classroom teacher.
