WELCOME TO ED 305!

Students will participate and maintain a blog during their field placement, reflecting upon their experiences, both in terms of the expectations and reality of the situation. Details of the field experience are discussed in your Secondary Methods Handbook. You will be in the field on Fridays (all day) from September 17 - December 10 (10 visits).
