Overview

Program Description Children in the early childhood years (ages 3 - 10) are filled with curiosity, energy and a sense of wonder about the world around them. As an early childhood teacher, students will have the opportunity to make a positive impact on every child they teach and help each child develop a love of learning. Young children need teachers who are dedicated, knowledgeable, lifelong learners, organized and positive in their approach. The classwork will focus on teaching methodologies and introductory practices for teaching subject matter. Early Childhood Education classes explore how children within that age range learn best, and how various developmental stages impact their learning. That information is then applied to different subject matters and Findlay's students learn how to teach subjects like math, science, history and social studies using techniques that are age-appropriate in a fun, unique way. Education majors in the first year of the program must complete 10 hours of observation in a classroom as part of their classwork. Students also participate in the University of Findlay and Van Buren Experience, a tutoring and reading program with one of our partnership schools. During the second year as an education major, students participate in a 6-week field experience from the start of school until the lunch hour and in other professional development such as: school board meetings, faculty professional development seminars at the district or building level, Individualized Education Planning (IEP) meetings or attending parent-teacher conferences. The Methods Field Experience block is conducted during the third year. Students will be in their assigned schools for 6-weeks from the beginning of the school day to the end of the school day. Teacher-candidates complete their 16-week student-teacher experience during their fourth year as an education major.

OPT and STEM OPT eligibility depend on maintaining F-1 status and on the program. A program counts as STEM only when its CIP code is on the official STEM list — not because its name sounds technical.
