Careers in Education 2 (Dual Credit)

This course is a continuation of Careers in Education 1. Class format will be the same, with students spending two-thirds of their time at an elementary or junior high working as an intern. Students may remain at the same site or move to different grade level. Second semester internship sessions will provide students with more leadership opportunities within the classroom. Seminar sessions will look more closely at child development, classroom management and lesson design. The course will investigate related careers other than teaching and provide opportunities for job shadowing. A significant amount of time will be spent on planning for post high school education and careers in related fields.
