四年的课堂教学经验
In the RWU 教育部 there is a simple philosophy: The best place to teach a student how to be a teacher is inside a K-12 classroom. It's why all four years our students spend an extensive amount of time inside elementary and secondary classrooms working with students and learning from practicing teachers.
第一年的经验
从大一开始. 作为课程的一部分, 新生们和教授们一起参观了小学教室. On these visits, RWU的学生可以看到他们在课程中学习的理论和方法变得生动起来.
工作经历
Sophomore year, students are part of RWU's new residency model that places RWU students in an elementary school for an entire year under the supervision of a host teacher and RWU education faculty member. 这种广泛的以课堂为基础的经验有助于RWU学生为毕业后的成功做好准备.
大三经历
大三的经历强化了理论与实践的结合. Juniors complete field practicums that let them apply what they are learning in their courses to real classrooms. Through this, RWU的学生获得了在自己的课堂上有效教学所需的经验.
大四经历
大四是RWU教师培训项目的巅峰阶段. Students complete their student teaching experience where they take all the skills they have developed and apply it in an elementary classroom to show they are ready to be effective teachers upon graduation.
通过亲身体验获得更深刻的理解
