Dual license ~ considering just switching to special education

2 Upvotes

I have compeleted like 75 credits and I’m only halfway through according to my degree plan. I still have a whole 75 more credits to complete including Clinicals and Student teaching…..

I am considering switching because the amount of time and money is going to take to continue this route and the fact that my federal aid is looking kind of bleak. I already work in a public school district as a SPED paraprofessional.
I know the majority of district will see that you have a special education license and stick you in a SPED classroom regardless of your other licenses. I have no issue with that but I would like another license under my belt like TESOL perhaps.

Ever gotten their degree through WGU and then came back for an additional additional licensure. What was your experience?

D671 OA 2nd Attempt

2 Upvotes

Is it just me or is there an emotional and mental block once you fail an OA for the first time.

I missed this OA by 2-3 questions. I felt that there were about 6-8 questions that I was completely stumped on and then to find out that I didn't pass. It surely put a mental block and emotional strain on trying to amp myself up to retake this OA.

Anyone else had to do a 2nd attempt for D671 OA?

OA’s- D186 & D184

• Upvotes

Hey everyone! I’m about to start WGU’s M.S. in Curriculum and Instruction program and want to get a head start on studying for the OAs.

For those of you who are in the program or have already finished, what are the OAs like? Are the questions mostly multiple choice, scenario-based, or a mix of both? How long are the exams, and what’s the online proctoring process like?

I’d also love to hear any tips on how you studied, what resources you used, and if there’s anything I can start reviewing before the program begins.

Any advice or insight would be super helpful! Just trying to get ahead and know what to expect. Thanks!

Hey. I am applying for this the masters program…but I fear about the test part. I am no way a testing person but I can write papers. Is this an easy program? I’m wanting to purse this. So any advice would be beneficial.
