Abstract
The preparation, recruitment, and retention of teachers for rural areas and Native American reservations has long been a serious problem. This article describes a teacher preparation program that prepares preservice special education teachers to effectively work with Native American children and their families in a remote reservation area. University students receive practical classroom experience. The instruction is managed by an on-site instructor. The university students also experience almost total immersion in the Navajo culture. Recommendations are made for establishing similar programs in other locations.
