Student Teaching I in Science and Technology for Middle and High School

330 hr. of fieldwork at a secondary school. Student Teaching I is the first student teaching experience that is designed to provide undergraduates and graduates in the secondary education program with school-based classroom experiences that prepare them to effectively student teach at the middle school and secondary school levels. Students are placed at a middle or secondary school setting under the guidance of a school-based teacher, and college-based supervisor. Aspiring teachers will learn how to plan, instruct, and assess lessons based on knowledge of subject matter, and how students learn and develop; as well as how to create learning environments which encourage positive social interactions and active participation. In addition, aspiring teachers will learn how to adapt instructional and assessment strategies to the diverse needs, interests and abilities of learners.
