Biographical/Historical Note

The School of Education prepares undergraduate and graduate students for elementary, middle level, and high school classrooms as well as school and public librarians through several programs and course offerings. The School of Education courses focus on Curriculum and Instruction, Foundations of Education, and Special Education. Students acquire skills in planning and using various teaching methods and resources; creating and maintaining a positive learning environment; evaluating learning and instruction; and pedagogy for diverse learners. Under the guidance of Dr. Lester Emans, the curriculum was strengthened in the 1950s. Prospective teachers devoted most of the senior year to on-the-job experience and to college courses related directly to that experience. This was the first such program in the state colleges. Now in the 21st century, the program has 1500 students and 21 full-time faculty.
