COMMON FEATURES

While the program taken by a student will vary with the major and minor(s) certain common elements are present.
The common outline:

COMMON REQUIREMENTS

Requirements common to all students are:
1. ENGL 100; EPS 100, 200, and 350; ED 350; EPSY 350; EFDN elective; EADM 310; EFLD 400 (internship); major curriculum course; minor curriculum course; 2 major instruction courses.
2. Liberal education: courses from 3 divisions and 4 disciplines must be included in the program.
3. EFLD 400 (Internship) is taken in the 7th semester.
4. EFDN and EADM 310 electives.
5. Major (Education and other faculty courses) requirements are set out below.
6. Minor - 21 credit hours including a curriculum course (specific requirements identified below).
7. Completion of a minimum of 120 credit hours. (Minimum 48 credit hours in education courses).
8. Students must have an advisor from their major area. This person should be identified prior to, or during, the first semester through the Student Program Centre Office. Programs must be planned in consultation with, and be approved by, the advisor or the Student Program Centre.
9. Students are required to meet established standards to proceed to each of the second, third, and fourth years of the program. These standards include appropriate professional development. A student must have an average of at least 70% in the major to proceed to internship. The number of students in the secondary program is strictly limited. Hence admission to the program is by competition with other students seeking admission. Student records will be reviewed for admission to EPS 200, EPS 350, and internship. Students must be familiar with these requirements. For further information contact the Student Program Centre Office.
10. A school placement experience each year of the program.
11. Participation in an off-campus residential experience (OCRE) in the 6th semester.
12. Participation in a professional development seminar during the internship if at all possible.
13. During EFLD 400 (internship) students should not take other courses or engage in employment. The internship demands a total commitment.
14. A student who does not successfully complete internship must have permission of the Coordinator of Professional Development and Field Experiences and of the Student Program Centre (in consultation with others, as appropriate) before continuing in the program. A grade of "incomplete" for internship will normally mean that an additional semester of internship will be required. A grade of "fail" will normally mean the student will be subject to University regulations concerning requirement to discontinue. The latter ruling is subject to appeal and review.

SECONDARY MAJOR PROGRAMS

SECONDARY BEd AFTER DEGREE (BEAD) PROGRAM

An approved university degree which includes at least 24 hours of approved courses in a school teaching major and 16 hours of approved courses in a school teaching minor is required for entrance. The program normally requires completion of a minimum of 60 credit hours. Depending on courses taken in the undergraduate degree, students may be required to take additional courses, or advanced standing may be granted. Students should have their transcripts evaluated by the Student Program Centre prior to being assigned an advisor from their major. In addition to satisfying major and minor requirements, students must complete EPS 100 and EPS 200 prior to the pre-internship semester. While students may, under special circumstances, take these two courses concurrently, they are urged to take EPS 100 either as part of their first degree, or before they begin the BEAD program. Appropriate professional development and an average of 70% in the major are normally required for entrance into internship. Students must submit a completed application for the BEAD Secondary program to the Student Program Centre Office on or before February 15th.
After completing 48 credit hours of work in education courses (including internship) on this program, if major and minor requirements have been met, students may apply to the Department of Education for teacher certification. Application forms are available from the Student Program Centre Office (Room 354, Education Building). Arrangements can be made to allow for BEAD registration in January. Such declaration must occur at the time of registration for the course.

THE BEd (SECONDARY) DEGREE PROGRAM FOR CERTIFIED TEACHERS WITH APPROVED DEGREES (BA plus a Professional Year or equivalent)

This program usually requires completion of 30 credit hours as follows:

The remaining courses are selected in consultation with the student's advisor.
Completion of a minor is a normal requirement.
*With approval of the Student Program Centre, another course may be substituted by students with five or more years of teaching experience

BEd (GENERAL) DEGREE PROGRAM

The BEd (General) is designed to provide degree qualification for certified elementary school teachers who wish to transfer to a high school teaching position. Programs are offered in art, biology, business education, chemistry, English, French, history, mathematics, music, physical education, physics, and social sciences; they are planned in consultation with an assigned advisor with specialization in the student's chosen major. Students who are in doubt as to whom they should choose as their advisor should consult the Student Program Centre Office.
Successful completion of this program results in the student obtaining a BEd degree and meeting the requirements of the Professional A Certificate of the Department of Education.
All programs require a total of 120 credit hours including the professional year. The credits for the professional year will be included in the calculation of the WPA if that year was taken after July 1, 1966.

PROFESSIONAL COURSE REQUIREMENTS

In addition to the education course requirements completed in the professional year, students complete a further 18 credit hours in education with a senior course in each of: curriculum content in the chosen major, theory of instruction in the chosen major, educational psychology, educational administration, and educational foundations.

ACADEMIC COURSE REQUIREMENTS

Students electing to take the BEd (General) program of the Faculty of Education are required to select a teaching major.

BMusEd PROGRAM

(Refer to BMusEd Program on page 298)

This four-year program, offered jointly by the Faculty of Fine Arts and the Faculty of Education under the supervision of a joint coordinating committee of the two faculties, allows students to select, as a major area of interest, one of the following: choral, instrumental, or general music education. Students pursue applied music study on one instrument or voice for seven of the eight semesters. A half-hour public recital is to be given in the fourth year. This requirement may be fulfilled by a one half-hour jury recital before music faculty members with the permission of the head of the Music Department. Students are cautioned to select sufficient courses in one area if they wish to develop a secondary teaching minor ("Secondary Minors" in the Faculty of Education section of this calendar). Qualifying for the Professional "A" Certificate granted by the provincial Department of Education Training and Employment, will require careful management of all of the options and electives available in the program.
All students in the program register in the Faculty of Fine Arts for at least the first two years. For the following years counselling may be obtained from either the head of the Music Department (Faculty of Fine Arts) or the chair of Music Education (Faculty of Education). The degree may be awarded through either the Faculty of Education or the Faculty of Fine Arts, depending on individual preference.
The entrance requirements for the BMusEd include those of both the Faculty of Fine Arts and the Faculty of Education. In addition, an entrance examination is required in performance and in music theory, to be given by the Music Department. Dates of examinations, are available on request from that department. The WPA required for graduation is 65%.
The following courses are required: ENGL 100, 110; EPS 100, 200, 350; ED 350; EPSY 350; EADM 310 or EFDN; MU 121, 122, 200, 201, 221, 222, 308, 321, and 322; courses which will constitute a teaching minor; 1.5 hour courses in techniques (MU 185, 186, 187, 188, 283, and 342 are required for at least six semesters); EMUS 300 and 350 and one additional EMUS course. One semester is to be spent in internship with 15 hours of credit to be counted toward graduation. A WPA of 70% is required in the Music major (includes Music and Music Education courses) in order to proceed to internship (EFLD 400).
Successful participation in an ensemble is required during each semester except internship. For details of this requirement, please refer to "Ensemble Requirements" on page 296.
