EDU 620: Residency & Seminar II

The student teaching residency is designed to provide the pre-service teacher with a realistic mentored experience in planning, managing, and teaching in a public school classroom. The seminar is designed to both enable the resident to integrate theory and practice and to find professional support from peers and faculty. The seminar itself will be process-oriented, with weekly topics determined collaboratively between the instructor and the students. Residents who are employed by a school district on a provisional license will complete the residency in their district-assigned classrooms. Residents who are not employed by a school district will be placed in a classroom with a mentor teacher. This is the second semester of a two-semester sequence. The resident must complete a minimum of 360 hours in the assigned residency classroom. Prerequisites: Successful completion of EDU 615 Residency I. Credits: 6
