EDEL 4312: Student Teaching/Clinical Apprenticeship II

Builds upon the clinical teaching experiences of the previous semester.  As they continue in this critical credentialing phase, preservice teachers intensify their hands-on teaching mentorships in continued collaboration with veteran educators across varied classroom environments.  Participants take on greater responsibilities in designing, delivering, and evaluating instructional material.  They enrich their grasp on curriculum and pedagogy.  They also advance their expertise in tailoring lessons for diverse student groups, amplify their classroom management strategies, and further perfect their capacity to establish inclusive learning environments.

In line with recognized standards for teacher training, EDEL 4312 underscores the importance of self-reflection for professional development.  Preservice teachers consistently engage in introspective practices and work hand-in-hand with mentor teachers to refine their acumen as professional educators.
