Student teaching placement
Each candidate must successfully complete 2 teaching assignments in at least 2 different cultural, socioeconomic settings. In addition, one of the placements must be in a classroom in which a significant number of students are English learners and the cooperating teacher (field supervisor) is certified to teach English learners. Placements are made through the college supervisor and coordinator of placement and supervision. All candidates will do the second phase of student teaching in a partnership school. A supervisor from the Single Subject Program will visit the school(s) regularly to observe and confer with the candidate and field supervisor.
Before students can register for the Teaching and Learning II course and fieldwork component, they must pass CBEST and complete the subject matter competence requirement (i.e., either pass subject matter exams or complete a Commission-approved Subject Matter Program).
