The seminars will involve both classroom activities and experience-based learning. For example, the course on first-year students will include a study of current research on the first-year experience, interviews with first-year students, and an experiential component where participants serve as mentors for first-year students. Participants will be asked to produce a paper that integrates the theoretical and experiential aspects of the course and develops implications for teaching in their content areas. May be repeated to a maximum of three enrollments.

    The Practicum is a mentored teaching experience that not only immerses the graduate student in teaching by also fosters reflection on the experience, provides structured feedback and plans for improvement, and guides students in developing a teaching portfolio. The practicum requires that the graduate student assume full responsibility for a course, under the guidance of a mentor teacher. Supervision for the practicum experience is a joint responsibility of the Teaching and Learning Center, certificate faculty, and the student's mentor. The practicum is distinct from many mentored Teaching Assistant experiences because the student must have full responsibility for the course, including syllabus and materials development, assessment, instructional responsibilities, and grade assignments. Credit will not be assigned until the graduate student has submitted a teaching portfolio that includes the practicum experience. Prereq: EPE 672; GS 610 (or equivalent); consent of instructor required.
