Five-year
teacher education program Clinical Experiences |
|||||
| Overview Clinical experiences that provide students hands-on practice with various aspects of teaching are essential to and at the heart of the preparation of the next generation of teachers. To build the knowledge, skillls and dispositions of an effective teacher, students enrolled in the Benedum Collaborative Model of Teacher Education begin their clinical experiences early in their programs of study and progress gradually toward more complex learning assignments within school settings. |
|||||
| Clinical
Experiences In the Five-Year Teacher Education Program there are six sequenced, intense, supported clinical experiences that take place in the 31 professional development schools (PDSs) associated with the Benedum Collaborative. By the time a student graduates from this program, s/he will have spent more than 1000 hours in clinical experiences in a PDS. |
