EPSY 6500 - Student Teaching: Implementation and Reflection

Involves an extended period (usually one school year) of apprenticeship teaching under the daily supervision of mentor/master teachers. Over time, the student discusses teaching strategies with the mentor and a university supervisor–and takes on increasing responsibility for the conduct of the classroom. Additionally, students meet periodically with professors in seminars to relate their classroom experiences, reflect on their generality, and review pertinent (especially psychological) research. Prereq: Enrollment in a teacher licensure program. Semester Hours: 2 to 4
