Students earn credit towards the Associate of Arts in Teaching (ATT) degree while observing in an assigned MCPS classroom.  Mentored by a master teacher, participants get hands-on experience working with small groups of students and tutoring, in preparation towards becoming a future teacher. The field experience presents authentic learning opportunities where students observes research based best practices.
