EDU 41000 Student Teaching
This course consists of observation, individual conferences, and supervised teaching in an early childhood setting, elementary middle and/or secondary school and a weekly student-teaching seminar. This course is designed to be the culminating experience in a student's teacher preparation program; thus, students should have completed all of the courses necessary for the degree and certification prior to this course. The student is responsible for arranging and paying the expense of transportation to and from the assigned school.
