P-Teach: Community Based Field Experience
Want to see what the profession of teaching looks and feels like while earning college credit?
Work in a classroom, helping a teacher, and gain invaluable experience with students. This field experience and seminar is designed to support your first foray into educator preparation. You will be introduced to the wide array of skills and practices that support working effectively with youth in the context of their local community. Working within the community to support children’s academic and social development requires a disposition of being grounded in the community—the experiences of this seminar, paired with your work at a local school or community organization will help you to develop this grounding. This course requires 60 hours of meeting time with student and instructor per semester for 0.5 credits and completion of a meeting log with specific meeting times and dates.
This course is offered during the fall, spring, and summer semesters every school year.
This course is concurrent enrollment with CU-Denver. Students earn 3 college credits upon successful completion of this course.
