EDUCATION
The Associate in Teaching degree will prepare
students who plan to be an elementary or secondary teacher. The program
is designed for students who will be transferring to nearby universities
to earn a bachelors degree in teaching. Students should identify which
university they plan to transfer to and meet with an advisor from that
university during their freshman year at Kirtland Community College.
With curriculum information from the university, the student’s Kirtland
advisor can customize the students’ freshman and sophomore schedule to
best select the appropriate transfer courses. There may be substitutions
to the curriculum below depending on the major, minor, university, and
level of teaching targeted. You must meet with Marcell Romancky and
Denise Kemp, they are designated advisors at Kirtland Community College
that can help students who are planning to become school teachers.
Most paraprofessionals who work in schools who
receive Title I funds are now required to complete an associate's degree
or two years of study at an institution of higher learning, and/or pass
a formal assessment to demonstrate knowledge and ability to assist in
reading, writing, and mathematics instruction. There are many different
associate degrees at Kirtland from which a student may select, but this
program is tailored to those who want to focus primarily on courses that
will provide direct benefit on the job.
