These experiences begin the freshman year and are closely supervised by our faculty. Each year the student is given increased responsibility in the practical setting. These practical experiences culminate in a semester of student teaching or internship during the senior year. This enables students to gain extended experience in their actual work settings under close professional supervision. Videotaped feedback .
Students receive on-going videotaped feedback to improve their professional skills.
This occurs during classroom presentations, micropeer teaching situations, and during field-based experiences. During the review of the videotape, systematic supervisory feedback is provided to help students make improvements in their performance. This process begins in the first year and continues to the senior year. It is integrated across many different courses and a diversity of experiences. Relevant curriculum .
