About EDCI 352

EDCI 352 explores key aspects of the education profession, such as the structure of education in America, the developmental stages of children and adolescents, and the diversity of learners and educators. During this course, you will experience TeachLive by practicing your teaching skills with virtual students who have realistic and diverse personalities, behaviors, and responses. You will teach a 10-12 minute lesson plan that will be provided based on your program area. In addition, you will be able to watch a recording of your session and learn from your strengths and weaknesses. The goal of this TeachLive experience is to help you develop confidence and essential classroom management skills required for real classrooms.
