Undergraduate students complete this experience as part of EDUC 200 Education in American Society. Post baccalaureate (PBTL) students complete this experience by enrolling in PBTL 001 Field Study in Education through the Division of Graduate and Continuing Education (DGCE). PBTL students typically take PBTL 001 while enrolled in or following PBTL 910 Education Foundations or PBTL 992 Learning and Human Development. The Field Study I experience is completed in a non-charter public school classroom appropriate for the license which the student is seeking. Students spend three hours per week at the placement site, for a minimum of 36 hours over the course of the semester.
