(2) Provide cooperating teachers for all student teachers during their student internship for up to two academic quarters;
(3) Enhance the student teaching component of teacher preparation programs, including a placement of student teachers in special education and multi-ethnic school settings; and
(4) Expand access to each other and opportunities for collaboration in teacher education between colleges and universities and school districts.
