You will also be challenged to think critically, enhance your global awareness and be responsive to different ways of thinking and learning. Fieldwork & Student TeachingLearn through experience by connecting Early Childhood - Elementary Teacher Education classroom theories to practice. You'll engage in field placements and student teaching earlier in your college career than is typical. You'll progress from one day a week to full-time involvement in local schools by completing supervised field experiences in early childhood and elementary schools that link with each semester's coursework, and then spend the final semester of your senior year student-teaching under the support and direction of a classroom teacher and a Champlain instructor.
