399 Field Experience - Internship III
This course is an internship for one semester in an off-campus location that provides students with the opportunity to assist teachers, librarians, school administrators, or church education leaders. While not as extensive as EDU 450, the student will be able to experience their chosen educational setting to evaluate future employment in education. Students meet with their faculty advisor to discuss internship experiences. The number of credits will be determined according to the number of hours the student spends in the internship. Forty hours of successful onsite work equals one academic credit. Two goals for each internship are developed in conjunction with the student and an additional two required goals are developed by the professor. The goals reflect an increasing level of difficulty through the 199/299/399 sequence. Prerequisite: EDU 101 and 299. (1-3 credits)
450 Field Experience - Student Teaching
Students are placed for a one-semester student teaching internship within a Christian school that provides them the opportunity to practice what they have been taught in the Teacher Education Program. During this internship, the student will be working closely with a Christian K-12 teacher in all facets of teaching; in addition, the student will meet regularly with, and be evaluated by, an Education professor. Prerequisite: Senior standing as an education student. (12 credits)
