Practicum and Seminar I

Catalog description

This clinical experience and seminar, held off-campus at student teaching sites, provides the practical component of the MAT fall semester that will allow MAT students to merge theory and practice. The main goals for this semester are for practicum students to familiarize themselves with their school context, students and community; develop an understanding of how school context and learning about students inform planning curriculum; be aware of the policies and initiatives you are responsible for in the role of a teacher; form professional relationships with your colleagues, students, and families; and begin instructing in a co-teaching model.
