UTCH 100 Step 1: Inquiry Approaches to Teaching
(1-0-1) Students who want to explore teaching careers become familiar with lesson plan development by writing, teaching, and observing lessons in an elementary school class. While students build and practice inquiry-based lesson design skills, they also become familiar with and practice classroom management in the elementary school setting. As a result of the Step 1 experiences, students are able to decide to continue to explore teaching as a career by registering for Step 2, and ultimately, the remainder of the MSUTeach curriculum leading to teacher certification. Clinical experiences are integral to this class.
