It also discuses the process of developing and implementing a curriculum based on multiple sets of standards from different professional organizations to prepare preservice teachers for inclusive education in dual-certification teacher education programs in a mid-sized university located in the Northeastern US. Crosswalk examples between the Council for Accreditation of Educator Preparation (CAEP) standards, Council for Exceptional Children (CEC) standards, the New York State Teacher Certification Examination (NYSTCE) – Students with Disabilities Content Specialty Test (SWD CST) Framework, and an excerpt of a standards-based assessment rubric are shared to help provide insights into the preservice inclusive teacher preparation in New York State, the United States.</p> ER -
