Mentoring and Resources

The education department at 91ÑÇÉ«´«Ã½ believes that students learn to be teachers not just in the 91ÑÇÉ«´«Ã½ classroom, but also by engaging in multiple field placements in area public schools.The culminating field placement, the 91ÑÇÉ«´«Ã½ Teacher Scholars practicum, allows our students to spend fourteen weeks in a classroom full-time, first observing, then working alongside, and finally assuming responsibility for three of a cooperating teacher's classes.
