Polson, June 12.
The purpose of this course is to provide the
professional educator with core knowledge and skills to work effectively in
teams composed both of professionals and paraeducators. Specifically,
participants will refine their knowledge of the characteristics of
paraeducators in education, the distinction between professional and
paraeducator roles and responsibilities, liability and ethical issues. They
will learn about the research-based components of paraeducator supervision.
They will develop skills in: (1) establishing collaboration and working
relationships (2) assessing personal supervisory skills; (3) building work
schedules and instructional plans; (4) identifying career development areas for
paraeducators through needs assessment; and (5) using feedback to improve the
job performance of para- educators
