EDU 526 - Leadership Field Experience II, 2 credit hours

Corequisite(s): EDU 517
The field experience(s) in the Educational Technology program consist of classroom and school system- based activities that allow candidates to integrate coursework and apply their knowledge and skills in educational settings. Activities are designed by candidates and supervised by University and school personnel to meet the six major components of the ISTE Standards for Coaches. The goal of the second field experience is to encourage candidates to take on leadership roles within their education settings. Students will be asked to become a part of a technology committee, develop a technology proposal addressing a district/organizational need or interest, and then facilitating the professional development necessary to support staff in implementation. As technology coaches, candidates will demonstrate professional knowledge, skills, and dispositions in content, pedagogical, and technological areas as well as adult learning and leadership in order to deepen their knowledge and expertise.
