Student Teaching

Student teaching occurs in two phases.

Phase I Student Teaching involves observation, small group work and mini teaching, and culminates with a three week daily teaching experience in one class. This is generally completed early in the credential preperation program.

Phase II Student Teaching is a full semester experience. Individuals teach two different preperations within their subject areas as well as participate in other teacher activities. This is the culminating experience in the credential program.
