Liberal
Studies

The
liberal studies program is dedicated to assisting students who plan a future
as a K-12 teacher. Students attend lecture sections to discuss the
educational system, including exposure to state standards for curriculum. In
addition, liberal studies students are required to spend 3 hours per week in
a K-8 setting, observing the teacher-student interaction and interacting with
students themselves. Liberal Studies
10 students must observe in a K-3 setting during the language arts
block. Liberal Studies 20 students
must observe in a 4-8 setting during the math/science block. Classes may be either self-contained or
single subject.
