Description
Student Teaching represents the culminating experience in the teacher preparation program. It consists of a 14 week placement and is a full time responsibility. Students are placed in an approved school system and are mentored by a Cooperating Teacher selected for their classroom expertise. A College Supervisor is assigned to serve as the primary liaison between the college and school. College Supervisors also plan a schedule of Seminars during the semester, on timely topics, to support the student teacher. Student Teaching performance will determine whether or not the student is recommended to the Pennsylvania Department of Education for an Instructional I certificate. 6 credits.
