Many students participate in BVU’s internship program, which is facilitated by faculty members as well as the Career Services office. Internships for fieldwork experiences are offered for academic credit and are ideal for acquiring “hands on” experience in a particular field. For details regarding these programs, students are encouraged to refer to the entries under specific major descriptions, consult with their faculty advisor, or visit the Career Services web site.
– is the initial field experience. It
relates actual classroom experiences to concepts taught ad is taken early in the
education program to help the student decide if teaching is the best personal
career choice. This field experience is met via a minimum of 15 contact hours in
a classroom setting throughout a semester.
– is a clinical experience of at least 80
contact hours. Students serve as full-time associates with one or more classroom
teachers. This experience allows educational theory to be put into practice. A
second supervised participation experience in an appropriate special education
setting is also required.
– is an opportunity to integrate the most
current teaching methods, strategies, and educational models with real classroom
practice. University classroom guidance and support allow students to reflect on
what they have seen and tried.
– is designed to be the culminating experience in
teacher education and provides students the opportunity to actually teach in the
classroom setting for an entire semester. BVU students teach at elementary and
secondary schools in the area. This experience gives students the opportunity to
incorporate what they have learned and to demonstrate skills as a beginning
teacher.
