3.00 Credits
This course focuses on the organizational pattern in which English can best be taught and analyzes the effectiveness of various methodologies in bringing about changes in the language usage of young people.The course also considers such factors as appropriate curricula materials; methods of organization; approaches to the study of literature; and procedures most cogent in the field of grammar, composition, oral communication, and dialogue.The course includes working with a practicing teacher and visiting his or her classroom at least three times in a secondary school setting.(Prerequisite: submission of a résumé, a one-page writing sample on your philosophy of education, and completion of a data form, all of which are submitted to the Director of Secondary Certification Programs) Three credits.
-
15.00 Credits
This course includes a comprehensive study of the principles, methods, and materials necessary for teaching in the middle, junior, and senior high schools.Candidates explore effective elements of instruction as they relate to practical applications in the classroom.The course addresses teaching specific subject areas through readings, subject-area reports, and a unit of work.Candidates practice teaching techniques in videotaped mini-teaching sessions.This course requires a field service component consisting of 15 hours working with a classroom teacher.Guidance on certification issues is provided.Throughout the semester, candidates will participate in subject-specific methods labs.These labs introduce candidates to curriculum and pedagogy in their certification area and provide opportunities for candidates to design subject-specific learning experiences for diverse learners.Taught by content area specialists in the certification subject, the Methods Lab engages candidates with up-to-date curriculum and best practices in the field.(Prerequisites: Submission of a résumé, a one-page philosophy of education writing sample, a data form, and permission of the coordinator of the graduate secondary education program) Three credits.
-
3.00 Credits
Topics include methods and materials for improving reading and study skills at the secondary level and the application of developmental reading skills in all curriculum areas.Three credits.
-
3.00 Credits
This course offers a semester-long experience in a local public school for qualified candidates for secondary teaching.Candidates engage in observation and teaching five days each week.Emphasized concepts include classroom management dynamics, teaching techniques, lesson plan organization, and faculty duties.Candidates participate in group seminars one afternoon each week where they discuss their experiences and attend presentations on reading methods, audio-visual aids, and other topics.Candidates participate in individual conferences and receive assistance from their University supervisors and the cooperating teacher(s) who is BEST trained.Candidates must submit an application for placement with the director of student teaching placement in the prior semester.(Prerequisite: formal acceptance into the education minor) Twelve credits.
-
3.00 Credits
This weekly seminar is taken concurrently with student teaching.The seminar focuses on the issues and problems faced by student teachers and on the culture and the organization of schools.Although much of the subject matter of the seminar flows from the on-going student teaching experience, attention is paid to issues such as school governance, codes of professional conduct, standards for teaching, CAPT, school and district organizational patterns, classroom management, conflict resolution, communication with parents, sensitivity to multicultural issues, and dealing with stress and inclusion.The job application process, including résumé writing, interviewing, and the development of a professional portfolio, are also addressed in the seminar.Three credits.
-
3.00 Credits
This course introduces engineering students to the analysis of linear electric circuits.The course covers the basic laws of circuit behavior and analysis techniques, including descriptions of circuit elements and electronic variables, and considers circuit theorems and principles for insightful analysis of electrical circuits.The course introduces basic concepts and analysis of networks.(Prerequisites: PS 16, PS 16L) Three credits.
-
1.00 Credits
Students use common electrical laboratory instruments (oscilloscopes, meters, and signal generators) and elemental circuit components to construct and analyze basic electrical circuits.They study the application of circuit theorems and circuit elements (RL and RC); conduct experiments with transient, steady state, and frequency response; and use software applications such as Electronic Workbench and PSpice.(Co-requisite: EE 213) One credit.
-
3.00 Credits
Students perform frequency domain analysis of passive and active circuits, study transient and AC circuit analysis manually and with computer-aided applications, and examine the transient response of first and second order circuits.The course introduces pole and zero concepts and applies them to circuit analysis, and introduces computer methods of circuit analysis and design.(Prerequisites: MA 227, EE 213) Three credits.
-
3.00 Credits
This first course in electronics teaches basic principles and technologies to understand, analyze, and design electronic circuits.The course reviews the properties of semiconductor materials used in the fabrication of diodes, bipolar junction transistors, and field effect transistors.Students analyze amplifier biasing techniques and develop circuit models of semi-conductor devices that are used to analyze and design electronic circuits.Computer simulations of circuits are used to illustrate the fundamental principles.(Prerequisite: EE 213) Three credits.
-
3.00 Credits
Students build and test circuits using diodes, bipolar junction transistors, and MOSFETs.They use the principles developed in EE 231 to analyze, build, and test amplifier and oscillator circuits.(Prerequisite: EE 213L; Co-requisite: EE 231) One credit.
