Professionalism

Your session supervisor evaluates your professionalism daily. Professionalism directly reflects
your performance in the practicum itself. Feedback will be given on an as needed basis. Your
grade will be affected if you engage in inappropriate behaviors at the practicum site.

This list is not all-inclusive and may be updated to meet the needs of the practicum.

Did not miss any phase changes (one point for each)
Went to wait for child's bus to arrive (3pts)
Implemented ADLs as scheduled and as described in the course pack (3pts)
Left all unnecessary materials away from child and out of the discrete trial session (keys,
coffee, pop, etc.) (3pts)
Prompts child while they participate in scheduled activities (i.e., speech) (3pts)

Behaved professionally when interacting with the classroom teacher, supervisors, aides,
parents, peers, and other WoodsEdge staff (will vary)
Accepted feedback professionally and appropriately (eye contact, asked for suggestions,
etc.) (will vary)
•   All practicum students are subject to the rules and regulations of Kalamazoo Regional
    Educational Services Agency (KRESA). – For instance, verbal or physical abuse will not
    be tolerated. If a WMU student engages in verbal or physical abuse of any kind, then the
    student will be terminated as a staff member of KRESA and the WMU student must drop the
    course. If it is too late to drop the course, then the WMU student will receive an “E” for the
    course.
•   Implement DTT as instructed – Teaching the child in your own way is NOT professional.
    We are providing instructions and feedback to practicum students based on the research
    results and years of experiences in teaching children with autism. If you have disagreements
    in the way that we conduct training, please talk to your TA. We are open to your suggestions.
•   Dress Code - WoodsEdge is a professional site and you are expected to adhere to the dress
    code. Your clothes should look appropriate for the parents of the children and any related
    professionals including teachers, occupational therapists, school nurses, school psychologists,
    etc. You will lose 3 professional points for wearing inappropriate clothes at WoodsEdge. Be
    aware that what you may consider “appropriate” may be “inappropriate” from their
    perspectives.
            o Examples of acceptable attire: clean, dark jeans, khakis, casual dresses and
                skirts, sweatshirts, tennis shoes, and sandals (with backs).
            o Examples of unacceptable attire: Any dirty, torn, patched, or stained clothing,
                cut-offs, beach wear, low-cut shirts, bare-midriff shirts, stretch pants or leggings,
                short skirts or shorts ("Daisy Dukes"), anything with writing on it, and clothing
                worn inside out or backwards.
            o Do not wear T-shirts with contents inappropriate for an educational setting (sex,
                drugs, alcohol, etc.), or with any writing.
            o Do not wear any clothes that do not cover your underwear or private parts of your
                body. (Low-rise jeans may be inappropriate if someone can see your underwear
                when you bend over.)
•   Language - Use school-appropriate language. Remember that you are working at a public
    school. Using swearwords, making negative comments, and talking about parties and who
    you’re dating are NOT appropriate. Choose appropriate topics at school. Believe it or not we
    actually see a fair amount of this….even in front of children and parents.
•   Accepting feedback is a large part of professionalism at WoodsEdge. We are open to
    suggestions as you will become very aware of the strength and weaknesses of your child,
    however we ask that you are respectful in both receiving feedback as well as addressing any
    issues with your child or supervision.
