Learning Compact: Science
Education
The National Science Education Standards and the Florida Science Curriculum Framework and Sunshine State Standards promote the importance of an inquiry orientation in science teaching. The Chemistry Education program supports less "coverage" of material and increased depth of understanding, appropriate use of instructional technology, and use of strategies to promote meaningful learning by all students. The science education programs emphasize a sound background in the instructional processes that help future teachers to justify and modify what they do in the classroom. In accordance with the National Science Teachers Association (NSTA) recommendations, they give teachers of each content area a general science background, as well as a specialized content emphasis.
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
- you have passing scores on all four parts of the CLAST exam or General Knowledge (GK) exam.
- you are a full-time student, can take day and evening classes, and will have continuous enrollment.

NOTES:
1. Field Labs I and II require at least 5 daytime hours per week at an assigned school site.
2. A transfer student with 60 semester hours but without an AA degree from a Florida public institution should complete any missing General Education requirements as noted on the Transfer Evaluation. Course work to satisfy missing General Education may be found in the Appendix section of the University catalog.
