Beginning with a short course inobservation, students are given increasingly responsible teachingopportunities. Supervising teachers observe progress in the classroomand hold regular meetings for problem solving, feedback,and support. Field placements provide students with teachingexperience with different age groups in both public and privateschools, and in both urban and suburban settings, working withdiverse populations.Program Content and SequenceThe curriculum develops over four or six quarters from theoreticalto applied work. The first several quarters are weighted towardacademic work focusing on fundamental concepts of teaching.As students progress, the curriculum moves from theoreticalacademic assignments to the application of theory and thepractice of teaching. During the last two quarters, students spendfour full days per week at their field placement, culminating in twoto three weeks of solo teaching. Throughout the program, studentsmeet regularly with their supervising teachers and universitysupervisors to reflect upon and critique their progress.Program Learning Outcomes• Assess learning and use data to inform teaching.• Make subject matter comprehensive and accessibleto students.• Engage and support students in learning.• Plan instruction and design learning opportunities.• Create/maintain effective environments for learning.• Reflect, assess and plan for professional development.Credentialing ProcessStudents complete a curriculum designed to prepare them to meetall standards of performance required by the California Commissionon Teacher Credentialing (CCTC) for the awarding of thecredential.
