Education 355/395: Field Experience

Instructors: Sister Dorothy Bredehoft (), Dr. Tammy Feil, and Sister Betty McVeigh ()

Description:  A service learning project may be completed in conjunction with the regular Field Experience Lab required for EDU 345 and EDU 390.  This service learning project is designed to be a comprehensive, integrated educational experience that fosters an understanding of the factors that may make a child at-risk* and allows the student to gain “hands-on” knowledge of how to differentiate learning skills for at-risk students.  The service learning component is offered to enable students not only to put the theory and pedagogical skills they learned into practice but also to develop their social skills and to be enriched by the experience of working with at-risk children.
