TEaM's First Table Talks
Dr. Pam Morgan, Assistant Professor of Special Education, was the guest
speaker this morning at the Clinical Residency TEaM (Teacher Educators
and Mentors) Model's September Table Talk. Table Talks are monthly
meetings in the Clinical Residency Research Center with the 2015-2016
full-year PK-3/Elementary interns. Dr. Amy Vessel, Acting Director of
Professional and Clinical Experiences, coordinates TEaM members to
provide professional development in areas of need according to the
intern's recommendations. Per the intern team request, the focus was
meeting the needs of all students, and Dr. Morgan provided a wealth of
recommendations, strategies, and professional resources from her
personal library. CIL Department Chair, Dr. Bryan McCoy, and Dean Don
Schillinger also dropped by to welcome the interns back to campus.
Thanks again, Dr. Morgan, for spending your morning supporting the
residency program!
