EDUC 545 Field Practicum Experience/Seminar (1 credit)
Enables prospective teachers to observe, participate, analyze, reflect, and discuss issues relative to the assigned school community and typical school learning situations through supervised field experience/seminar at an assigned school site and selected grade level (Pre K-4, Middle Level 4-8 or 7-12). Provisions made for the preservice teacher to work with students in varied instructional groupings to apply theory/concepts/strategies related to prior coursework. Provides the preservice teacher an opportunity to reflect upon his or her career choice to confirm or re-examine his or her decision and desire to teach elementary or secondary school students.
Telescoped Practicum: The Practicum Teaching experience at the graduate and undergraduate level is an important component of our Teacher Education Program. The Practicum is best conducted for a full day, during a Fall or Spring semester on consecutive Tuesdays. When this arrangement is not feasible due to a variety of circumstances, the Telescoped Practicum may be approved (ten consecutive days) under certain conditions. The Telescoped Practicum is an exception, not an option, for full-time students. Contact the Field Placement Office for additional information.
