EDU 490 - Cooperative Teaching Experience
3 Credit Hour(s)
In this course, students will work regularly in the classroom supervised by a mentor teacher in a state approved public or private school, taking on progressively more challenging roles as they practice the skills they will need to teach in their own classrooms. Using the Michigan Academic Standards and the district curriculum, students will help develop and teach lessons and monitor student learning through various assessments. They will experience the curriculum and learner development for one grade level (elementary) or in their major and or minor fields (secondary). Projects will be assigned that include following a timeline to plan and organize the gradual release of responsibility, the planning and implementation of a lesson unit, and the videotaping of one lesson taught by the intern. Background check required.
Prerequisite(s): Junior Standing, successful completion of at least two EDU courses, and Program Approval
Offered: Fall and Spring
