This program prepares students to be licensed as both classroom teachers and school library media specialists. This enables a student to be a classroom teacher or a library media specialist. The dual track eliminates courses of obvious overlap, thus considerably shortening the program.
Student teaching is done in the regular classroom and the library media center.
This program reflects the rapidly changing nature of America's schools, where students with disabilities are being integrated into regular classrooms with increasing frequency, thereby necessitating all school personnel to have a broader professional preparation in working with diverse populations.
