FIELD EXPERIENCES IN TEACHER EDUCATION

Observations and practicum placements are vital components of the learning process at JMU.  Contact between students and a school provide a valuable, hands-on professional experience, and enhance the relationship between the university and the community.

Placements do take time as we contact busy principals and teachers for permission to schedule observations and practica. In order to facilitate the process, the Education Support Center maintains detailed information on schools and teachers who support our programs.

Student practicum application forms are available at the ESC office located in Memorial Hall, Room 7230.  See link below to access Faculty Practicum Request form.

STUDENTS SHOULD SUBMIT COMPLETED FORMS TO THEIR PROFESSORS, who will then send them to the Education Support Center, MSC 6915.
