School of Education

Overview


Dr. Gary Newbill
Dean, School of Education

Students in the School of Education prepare to make a difference in the lives of children and youth through teaching. When they graduate, these new teachers are ready to take responsibility for their students’ learning, and they recognize the extent of their potential influence on their students’ intellectual, emotional, and spiritual development.

Because most of the School of Education professors have taught in elementary and secondary classrooms, they have firsthand insight into the issues they present to their college students. These professors’ knowledge is not limited to personal experience, though: they have advanced degrees in education and are prepared to teach and explain the theories and educational concepts that relate to each classroom experience.

As part of their training, School of Education students observe experienced teachers at local schools as they conduct their classes. Then, as the students approach graduation, they begin putting their knowledge and skills to work in the classroom under the supervision of these same knowledgeable teachers.
