College of Education Field Experience

The Office for School Engagement provides the connection between our candidates and local school and community partners. As part of our teacher preparation program requirements, candidates participate in varied field experiences, practicum, and student teaching / internship placements within school district and community classrooms.

Field Experience

As candidates progress through their program, they participate in content and methods courses where field work is used as a means to apply strategies learned in the coursework. These activities require the teacher candidate to begin independent planning and execution of lessons/units, connect educational philosophy, research, and theory to practice.
