520 |a Guidelines that offer a model plan of study to provide candidates for teacher certification in psychology with sufficient knowledge to teach in secondary schools are presented. All secondary psychology teachers should have a thorough understanding of the empirically based principles of behavior and of the evidential approach to the study of behavior. Because those seeking certification may have followed different educational paths, three alternative plans to obtain psychology certification are presented. Each plan requires prospective psychology teachers to study both the content and the method of psychology. While courses that will help teachers develop sensitivity to adolescents' needs should be required of all secondary teachers, these courses should not be considered part of the specialty training of psychology teachers. Nor does a haphazard collection of introductory psychology, psychological foundations of education, mental health, and social studies methods courses assure sufficient background for a psychology teacher. Regardless of the field of certification, a separate endorsement with specific requirements in psychology should be added to the certificate. (RM)
