Elementary Education Program Beliefs and Values
 The Elementary Education program prepares teachers who can respond creatively to the needs of students from diverse backgrounds in the process of promoting their learning. The goals of the program enable preservice teachers to demonstrate research-based pedagogical approaches, to expand their content knowledge in order to help students meet the challenges of the 21st century, to use educational technologies thoughtfully, to value democratic public education, and to appreciate the key role of critical thinking in all aspects of schooling. Faculty view the professional work of program graduates as part of their efforts in supporting reform initiatives in local public schools.
Admission to the Program
Those entering the College of Education and Human Services must meet University admissions requirements as well as specific COEHS admissions criteria.
Tentative block schedule
This block schedule is not to be used in lieu of your Program of Study but to assist in appropriate sequencing of course work and for planning each term. This schedule is intended to be a suggested sequence for the program; however, completion of the program is subject to course availability. This tentative schedule is subject to change. The schedule assumes that:
- you begin courses in the Fall Term (August - December)
- you have satisfied all program prerequisites, foreign language, and General Education requirements (advisors will be happy to go over these prerequisites before planning your tentative schedule)
- you have passing scores on General Knowledge (GK) exam.
- you are a full-time student, can take day and evening classes, and will have continuous enrollment.
