The main feature of the BEEd and the BSEd programs is student teaching, a kind of apprenticeship designed to develop professional, social, and academic insights and skills as the student-teacher participates in the actual operation of the school, in teaching as well as non-teaching activities of the profession. It is so designed that the last semester of the four-year program is devoted entirely to intensive student teaching.
