ED 210 - Field Experience in Early Childhood Education

(1)

Students are placed in school settings during three semesters for the purpose of developing their skills in the areas of planning, implementing, and evaluating. The course numbers reflect a developmental sequence which indicates that students must register for ED 210 first, then ED 310, and ED 405. All students complete field placements spanning the chronological age range of early childhood certification. Placements in PreK or Kindergarten; grades 1, 2, or 3; and grades 4 or 5 are required. The placements must represent diverse learner populations (i.e., cultural, rural, and urban). Students enroll for 1 semester hour of field experience each semester for a combined total of 3 semester hours.
