Learner goals and capabilities

Students in our Master of Education programs are seeking dynamic projects/internships working with diverse populations (e.g., children/students from kindergarten – grade 12, people with disabilities, senior citizens).

  • Students can work directly with these populations in a school or other community organization that focuses on education in some capacity.
  • Students can also work on projects or create programs that will impact the focus population, as long as there is an educational component.
  • Only looking for unpaid opportunities.
  • Students need 150 hours total during the Fall 2020 semester.
  • A full-time option spans the Fall and Winter semesters where 300 hours would be required.
  • Supervisors should be willing to sign a form confirming the placement as well as bi-weekly timesheets which will be submitted to the instructor.
  • Supervisors should be willing to fill out and sign an evaluation form upon completion of 150 hours.

All opportunities need to be remote due to the global pandemic.
