Math Ed Practicum Lab

Catalog description

Pre-service teachers will serve as teaching assistants under the direction of a mentor teacher in a public school classroom providing an authentic experience with the responsibilities of a professional educator and an opportunity to practice the teaching skills being learned in their methods class. As teaching assistants, pre-service teachers will work one-on-one or in small groups with select students, help with grading class assessments, aid with record keeping, assist with class activities, create teaching resources, and teach lessons as assigned by the mentor teacher. Students will visit local schools daily during the time scheduled for this class. Additional travel time may need to be considered in the students' planning for these visits. Students are responsible for arranging their transportation.
