EDU 307 Field Experience I: Secondary

This is the first of two field experience courses in which preservice educators gain insight into the realities of teaching with the opportunity to participate in teaching-related activities. This course involves a 40-hour placement in a secondary classroom setting. Participation in this learning community provides preservice educators with the opportunity to reflect on instructional strategies, monitor students’ progress, complete daily activities, and observe the overall teaching and learning process. Throughout this course, preservice educators also gain an understanding of Iowa Teaching Standards and Criteria (Standards 1-3) as well as the UIU Lesson Plan format.
