A weekly seminar will serve as the forum in which student teachers can address challenges and concerns while sharing experiences, expertise, and successes.
Please be aware of the vast number of education students that BYU-Idaho is trying to service. Because of this, be aware of the following:
1. There is a STRONG probability that your student-teaching placement will be a distant site. (Tacoma, Las Vegas, Salt Lake City, Mesa, etc.)
2. Distant-site placements are limited to certain locations that have been organized for BYU-Idaho students. These sites have been researched and contacts made in order to help BYU-Idaho students gain a student-teaching experience.
3. There will be a disruption in your regular routine in order to participate in your student-teaching experience. You may need to move to a new area and re-establish your "home". This may require your purchasing new items that deem necessary. Also be aware that there may be additional expenses in transportation, housing, food, and utilities involved in your distant-site placement.
4. If you are in a campus-based placement, there will most likely be significant commuting for many of you.
5. There will be some unanticipated program expenses that develop through the program such as Praxis PLT, fingerprinting, and/or background checks. These are expenses that are not BYU-Idaho based, but mandated by school districts or the state. |
