EDUC 432 Interdisciplinary Methods: Secondary
The emphasis of this course is on methods, materials and techniques of teaching in your academic discipline at the secondary level. This includes observations and practice in a public school for a minimum of o ne full day per week and part of the following day, weekly class meetings with the course professor for discussions on assigned readings, class projects, and teaching mini-lessons, and weekly online modules preparing you for the classroom discussions and activities.
This is a blended/hybrid class: half of the class time will be spent online completing content specific learning modules (1 credit hour); half of the class time will be in class discussing what we have learned and putting it to practice with our peers (1 credit hour). If this is your pre-student teaching semester, there is also a required practical experience in the public schools (2 credit hours). If you are a non-licensure candidate, you will have a required shadowing project in a public school placement.
This course is open to licensure and non-licensure seeking students. Students in other licensure programs may take this course as an elective.
