Teacher Education
The New Visions Teacher Education Program provides an opportunity for high school seniors to explore the many aspects of a career in education. This program emphasizes best practices in curriculum development, instructional designs, classroom management, and the impact of social and political decisions within our educational institutions. The Cayuga-Onondaga BOCES, in cooperation with its nine component school districts, will provide an inside look at educational issues while allowing students to learn the role of an educator within authentic classroom environments.
Students will work with teachers, school counselors, support staff, school social workers, and administrators as they complete rotations in areas of special interest. Under the guidance of instructional specialists, students will develop and implement lesson plans, collect classroom instructional data, and meet with educational policy makers at the local and state levels. As students explore educational careers, they will research postsecondary educational requirements while preparing college applications.
Students who complete this program will earn three high school credits:
English 12 - 1 Credit
Government 12 - 1/2 Credit
Economics 12 - 1/2 Credit
Elective: Educational Psychology - 1 Credit

Freshman English I (ENGL 101) - 3 Credits
