EDUC 221 Short Field Binder

The Short Field Experience consists of activities and projects which provide the aspiring educator opportunities to look "inside" the classroom from the other side:  that of a teacher.  These activities include interviews and reflective summaries, teaching related activities, and classroom observations.  All of these experiences will be organized into the Short Field Binder at the conclusion of the field experience.  Each of these activities are explained in detail below.
