EDUC 446 - Early Field Experiences in Teaching English Grades 6-12

Credits: (3)
Prerequisites: Admission into the Teacher Education program.
Corequisites: EDUC 456 .
The purpose of early field experiences is to provide teacher candidates with real-world perspectives of teaching, learning, and school community while integrating educational theories with practice. Early field experiences in English provide teacher candidates with opportunities to become acquainted with the classroom and the many roles of the English teacher. Teacher candidates observe, perform non-instructional tasks, and engage in some closely supervised delivery of instruction. Through regularly scheduled seminar sessions, teacher candidates use an academic lens to reflect upon their observations and contributions within the classroom while considering the early field experience’s impact on their future teaching.

Note(s): This field experience is taken in conjunction with the methods course EDUC 456 : Methods for English Instruction Grades 6-12.
