Apprenticeship in Teaching Program

Authentic Teaching Tasks

Participants in the AT program must submit four authentic teaching tasks to complete the program. These tasks include: Classroom Observation, Syllabus Design, Teaching Philosophy Statement, and Videotaped Teaching Practice. For each task, you must submit the proper documentation (see webpage for each task) to certify that you have completed it.

CNDLS review of these documents will occur only twice a semester. For the Syllabus Design and Teaching Philosophy Statement, a faculty review is also required. The faculty review and related revisions should be made before it is submitted to CNDLS. Materials are accepted on a rolling basis and reviewed as designated below. If you are graduating, please make every effort to submit these materials well in advance of your graduation date and no later than the 2nd review date listed below.
