The course may include practical experiences like classroom observations and reflections on the teaching profession.

Education II: Advanced Education

(Education I is a prerequisite for Education II)

This capstone course in the Education Pathway prepares students for future careers or postsecondary studies in education and related fields. Building upon the foundation of Education I, students will deepen their understanding of the field through hands-on experiences at a variety of elementary and secondary education sites. Throughout the course, students will explore current social issues, the impact of technology, ethical and legal considerations, effective teaching strategies, and the importance of diversity in education. Education II could include a dual or concurrently enrolled college course. By the end of Education II, students will be ready to take the next step toward becoming thoughtful, skilled, and future-ready educators.
