Developing Pre-Service Teachers' Skills in Post-Secondary Transition through Applied Practice
Swindlehurst, Kelly Ann; Berry, Ann Bassett
Rural Special Education Quarterly, v40 n1 p24-32 Mar 2021
The need for special educators who can support students with disabilities in the transition to adulthood is well documented in the literature. In this article, we will report on the program improvement efforts by one university to embed more evidence-based transition practices into their pre-service teacher preparation program with the support of a state personnel development grant. Key aspects of the program revision will be outlined and accompanied by online resources for faculty to utilize when seeking to improve their special education preparation program in the area of post-secondary transition. The pre-service teachers' perceptions of the impact of the revision are included in the discussion; along with suggestions for future directions, research, and work in rural areas.
