The SOAR Experience will accelerate the pre-service candidate's understanding of the expected learning outcomes for Interdisciplinary Studies.

 

SOAR

• SOAR is a Field Experience where pre-service candidates spend time in a classroom setting four full days.

• This is a prerequisite for Interdisciplinary Majors entering ELED 3050/3070.

• The purpose of SOAR is for pre-service candidates to experience a "real" classroom setting.

• This "real" experience gives pre-service candidates the opportunity to reflect and analyze issues that relate to teaching and learning.

• It serves as a foundation for the course Creating Learning Environments: ELED 3050/3070.
