    Students will take the pedagogy and professional responsibility TExES seminar during field base I. If they successfully pass the pedagogy and professional responsibility practice test, then they will be allowed to take the appropriate content area/comprehensive TExES seminar field base II. Students who do not pass the professional responsibility practice test will not be allowed to take the content area/comprehensive seminar until they have successfully completed the professional responsibility seminar, including passing the practice test.
