N7 Student Teachers Learn By Actual Experience Student teachers learned from their own students as they completed their require- ments for a teaching certificate. Applicants for student teaching must have already earned an overall grade average of 2.25 and a 2.5 in their specified field. Enrolled in the College of Education, the teacher-to-be must then take the 16-hour bloc of student teaching. The professional semester consists of seven weeks in the field, five weeks back at the University taking varied courses and then six more weeks of actual teaching. The College of Education is accredited by the State Board of Education which permits it to recommend to that body the awarding of teacher's certificates without examina- tion.
