Serves as an introduction to the teaching profession through classroom activities, relevant study and research, and fieldwork. Field experience in elementary or secondary schools is mandatory and forms the core of this course. Students considering teaching gain 'first hand' classroom experience to clarify career goals and aspirations. For those already in the field, the course allows time for critical self-reflection and focus. Students are introduced to departmental policies, procedures and personnel as well as the State of Michigan Standards for Teaching. Extensive student interaction and participation creates a community of learners that is central to the experience and to the profession. Twenty (20) hours of field observation are required.
