The Teacher Education Program integrates our liberal arts general education, a student's major area of study (such as English, history, math physics, or language), and teacher education requirements.
Our state approved program emphasizes a strong theoretical base and practical experience. Its strengths lie in the use of reflective practice; electronic portfolios to demonstrate state competencies; multiple opportunities for teaching in diverse classrooms; and extensive content knowledge.
