EPP - Field Experience

Field Hours by Course

Courses which have a field experience, and the total number of contact hours needed to fulfill the requirements of the course.  Unless otherwise noted, all field hours take place outside of scheduled class meetings. In addition, candidates will be responsible to provide their own transportation to their placement(s). All placements require cooperating teachers to complete an evaluation of the candidate as part of the experience which will be placed in your chalk and wire portfolio. The evaluations and placements are developmental in scope and sequence and evaluate the candidates dispositions, and knowledge and performance of the Wisconsin Teacher Standards.
