Component 1 What Works

May 12, 2016

What Works,

I am about to take the exam for Component 1 for exceptional needs. Do you have any words of wisdom on the questions that require a written response?

page numbers

by Rebekah

May 12, 2016

I saw where someone asked if the pages needed to be numbered but I did not see an answer. Can anyone tell me if I need to number my pages? I have heard from people who completed their boards in the past that they were required to do that but I do not see it in the current directions. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

What Works I cannot find any direction regarding putting in page numbers - or not. My philosophy is to make the reading as easy as possible for the assessors. Adding page numbers uses no space needed for writing so I see no reason not to put them in. If nothing else, it will help the assessor see at a glance that the writing is within the allowed page limits....See More

instructional materials

by CM

May 10, 2016

I know this was asked but I don't know if it was answered

The instructional materials for Component 3 that support the videos ---Is it a benefit to submit a student worksheet completed or a student blank worksheet? Is it up to us to decide or is it documented someplace?

What Works I don't know if one way is more beneficial than the other - and I don't think it matters a great deal...but I generally advise my candidates to submit worksheets, graphic organizers etc. that are filled out. In my mind these show more evidence than a blank one...shows it's effectiveness with the student.

MC GEN Instructional Material question

by KIM

May 9, 2016

I have activities that only took a 1/2 of a sheet of paper. Can I place multiple instructional materials on the same page???

Should I take a picture of the work and put it in as a picture page because I can fit 6 on 1 page???

Component 3 Video

by Terry

May 10, 2016

I am planning on uploading my videos to the site. It says I need two video submissions. Is this two different lessons or two different components from the same lesson? I teach 90 minutes classes and each video can only be 15 minutes max.

It's two different lessons from two different units.

Scores - What Works?

by NC SC

May 9, 2016

Hello What Works!

Component 3 is submitted! In your opinion do you think we will wait just as long as we did last year for scores?

Just curious:)

Thanks!

What Works I'm afraid I have no inside information that could predict when scores will be released. I don't know any more than all of you do. I'm guessing that the date was late last year because Components 1 and 2 were new. Component 3 is new this year and it's like a double component - with 2 videos.

If I offered advice, I'd say expect scores late...See More

NC SC Sounds good what works:) I figured might as well plan for the worst and it can't get any worse than that;)

In the mean time I'm starting to read a great book called Data in school counseling and another book called evidence-based school counseling to help me get my mind around component 4:) Starting early for this last component!

I cannot figure out how to fill out the fill in the Professional Context Sheet for my renewal. Do you do it by hand then scan, or are their electronic forms that I cannot find? THANKS!
