Lofgreen The major purpose of the professional education programs in teacher education is to prepare candidates for teaching in pre-school, and in elementary and secondary schools. Preparation is also provided for teachers of mild and moderately handicapped students in public schools under the special education mild/moderate endorsement. The department prepares students for endorsements in Elementary Mathematics, ESL (English as a Second Language), Bilingual, Special Education, Basic Reading, and Education of the Gifted (graduate level only). All programs are approved by the Utah State Board of Education and the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE) and Northwest/North Central Associations. The preparation for teaching falls academically within four major categories: University General Education, support courses, subject specialization, and professional education. 1. University General Education requirements - In selecting courses to satisfy the general education requirements, candidates should note the general education courses recommended and/or required in their major and/or professional education requirement sheets available in the Teacher Education Advisement Center (ED 230). 2. Support courses 3. Concentrations are required of all elementary and secondary students. Concentrations for the prospective secondary school teacher consist of completing a teaching major and a teaching minor, or a composite teaching major, all of which are currendy being taught in Utah secondary schools and at least one of which is a required subject. Elementary education majors choose two 9-hour or one 18-hour content area concentration or a teaching minor. The professional education program outlines acceptable subject concentration areas and requirements. 4. Professional Education courses help the prospective teacher learn about children, the nature of the learning process, and how to provide desirable learning experiences. To meet licensure requirements, secondary school candidates are required to complete a minimum of 31 semester hours of professional course work; 42 semester hours are required of the prospective elementary school teacher. TREC Teacher Education Programs The Department of Teacher Education has designated its organizing theme as "Teacher as Reflective Practitioner" and designed a model that explicates the program's purposes, processes, outcomes, and assessments. The model is represented by the acronym TREC: Teachers Reflecting, Engaging, and Collaborating. These components - reflecting, engaging, and collaborating - serve as a thematic framework for organizing course work and program development.
