TIP 597 - Capstone Seminar

3.00 credits.

This course serves as the research seminar capstone for graduate teachers to understand and apply research theories and design, culminating in action research and corresponding oral defense. Experience is supervised student teaching for a full semester. The semester of student teaching is designed to assist students in the development and refinement of their teaching skills in the areas of planning, presentation, and assessment. Through reflection, student teachers are asked to integrate the experiences gained in the classroom with educational theory and to identify those elements of instruction that are positive and productive for student learners.
