Dual Credit Competencies: |
This course is for 11-12th
grade students interested in exploring a career in teaching, or
educational related field working with children, such as counseling.
It will provide students with
both academic preparation and field experience. Students will be placed
with a mentor teacher in grades K-8. Throughout the course, students
will experience the inner-workings of the classroom, school, and
district. Students will perform a variety of duties such as tutoring,
grading, and lesson planning. Be prepared to create bulletin
boards, learning games, and positive methods to motivate kids.
Leadership and responsibility are strongly emphasized. Students will create a portfolio to showcase their work, which is also a requirement to earn dual credit. This course articulates with Central Washington University's "Autumn Experience" for 4 credits, and TCC's Ed. Practicum for 3 credits. Students must complete all requirements with a grade of "B" or better to be eligible for college credit. Students usually need to complete two semesters in order to achieve all required competencies for these credits. Please see the instructor at each high school for more information. Excellent attendance are needed to be successful in this class as the majority of the competencies are accomplished in the classroom placement. This class is highly recommended for anyone considering a career working with children. Please read the "Elementary Tutoring Duties & Expectations" (link at left); The Student Agreement form must be signed and submitted to the high school coordinator before students can be placed in the elementary classroom. |
