Teaching Internships
The Education Program provides teacher education students a minimum of two course experiences in PreK-12 classrooms. The first field experience is a 115 hour internship. Students work with individual students, provide small group instruction, and teach short lessons. In student teaching, the pre-service teacher works in a classroom five days a week for an entire semester for a prescribed period of time. The student teacher carries all the responsibilities for classroom instruction and management. Other field experiences include an elementary reading diagnostic tutoring program, volunteer tutoring, and class projects.
