Does any one know if there are any Excelsior College Exams that TESC grants credit for history? I've looked everywhere cant seem to find any. it seem maybe world conflicts or world population might work. can anyone confirm? Thanks

I think TESC awards credit for all ECEs. Just not a grade.

I think TESC would prefer you take TECEP's. You have to call and get an appointment with an advisor for your program to find out what they will grant. I took the ECE Intro to Literacy instruction. Excelsior recommends 6 upper level credits TESC will only give me 6 100 level credits. I will appeal it to the dean when I have a few minutes.

I have to take 2 PRAXIS II this weekend and I haven't studied yet:willynilly:

Unbelievable - how can TESC treat a course with prereqs at the 200-level (the Ed Psych CLEP is counted as PSY-230-CE) as a 100-level course?

from https://www.excelsior.edu/portlets/ViewMiniSyllabus?courseID=EDUX*310:
Quote:"The examination assumes a knowledge of content that would be included in such lower-level education courses as Foundations of Education, Educational Psychology, Orientation to Teaching, and Instructional Planning. A knowledge of child development, some learning theory, and instructional planning and implementation, as well as practicum experience, would be helpful in learning the content of the examination.

That's ridiculous! I hope I don't have trouble using the ECEs for upper level psychology requirements.
