The student teaching experience is the culminating learning experience for the elementary licensure graduate certificate. Students must apply for student teaching the semester prior to registration. Student teaching is a time for developing one's classroom management style, instructional design, and collaborating with a mentor teacher. Student teaching is a rigorous experience, which is carefully planned, guided, assessed, and evaluated. It includes an orientation meeting and assignments to support key competencies. Offered CR/NC only; this course does not grant credit towards the MED degree but is required for a teaching license in the state of Utah.
