The Department of Curriculum and Instruction offers approved teacher education programs that lead to a Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science degree and licensure in the state of Tennessee. A program is offered in Interdisciplinary Studies in Education (elementary education K-6), as well as courses required for licensure in fields of secondary education and K-12 teacher education. A Master of Arts in Teaching degree is offered for liberal arts graduates to obtain teaching licenses at either the elementary or secondary level. Retention Criteria
- Review of students’ grades and personal/professional functioning will be undertaken. Coursework, field work, dispositions for teaching, and any other pertinent factors will be considered by the faculty of the Department of Curriculum and Instruction. Recommendations will be made for continuance in the program, continuance with specified remediations, or discontinuance.
- During the semester prior to student teaching, each student will be evaluated. Factors to be considered will be coursework, field experiences, ethical behavior, and personal/professional concerns. The review will culminate in either approval for entry into student teaching or disapproval. A disapproval will result in a conference with the student and a description of necessary remedial steps. All remedial conditions must be removed prior to student teaching.
Reading (READ)
The Reading Program offers courses in reading and storytelling that are required for licensure. Elective courses at the undergraduate level are provided for those interested in any aspect of teaching reading. Science Education (SCED)
