least once each semester. At the first advisement appointment during the first
semester, the advisor will review the following
topics: the Praxis Test Series; the requirements for Observation in the Field
(see below); the schedule and procedures for Professional Semester; and, the
assignments and procedures for the Clinical Experience and Practicum.
Advisors will explain the field observations requirement and provide
teacher candidates with a journal entitled "Guidelines for Fulfilling Field
Observation Requirements." The hours must be documented by February

semester. Registration for professional semester classes will be blocked
if these requirements are not met.
