Degree description
BAE programs in secondary education prepare educators to teach youth enrolled in grades 6-12.
While teacher candidates develop a strong theoretical background in their specific content areas, education program courses focus on developing the skills and teaching abilities required to be successful in the classroom. This program offers a Structured English Immersion (SEI) endorsement for working with English language learners and also provides extensive experiences throughout the program in integrating technology into teaching.
In order to integrate teacher preparation with the secondary education requirements for an academic specialization, the college collaborates with academic departments across the university. The program offers the following secondary education certification areas: biological sciences, chemistry, earth and space sciences, English, history, mathematics, physical education, physics, political science and Spanish.
Secondary education professional pathway programs are clinically embedded during the junior and senior years. The primary goal of all professional experiences is to provide students with multiple opportunities to apply knowledge learned in ASU coursework to practice in classrooms for grades 6-12.
Mary Lou Fulton Teachers College students complete internships one day a week during the junior year and first semester of the senior year. In the final semester, students complete a full-time teaching residency. Mary Lou Fulton Teachers College faculty and highly qualified lead teachers from partner school districts and charter schools collaboratively coach interns and residents during required professional experiences. The professional experience provided by the program provides students an opportunity to work directly with youth and make an immediate impact on classroom achievement. Students are also given the opportunity to work collaboratively with fellow interns in content area and interdisciplinary teams. This intensive, hands-on clinical experience model of teacher preparation creates highly sought-after graduates.
Graduates of the program desiring to teach in a public school must pass the appropriate Arizona educator exam to be certified to teach in the state of Arizona.
