小学教育

UE's 小学教育 program prepares students through an exciting set of courses and field experiences designed to maximize their skills and opportunities for employment.

和所有程序一样, elementary candidates have an initial field experience in a local school during their freshman year; and in nearly each subsequent semester, candidates have field experiences that improve and expand their instructional and assessment skills and strategies through their senior year. 作为初中, all candidates focusing on elementary education spend two full semesters, working for about a half day every day, under the tutelage of a UE professor and an excellent classroom teacher. Field placements are generally in local area schools and include a variety of experiences working with different cultures and other diverse student populations.
