Milligan College instituted an off-campus laboratory program for its student teachers. A team of classroom teachers works with the prospective teachers. At the sophomore level some observation and teaching is done by students who are then evaluated. During the junior level a student is assigned one child to aid in reading abilities for 5 weeks. The senior level is instructed by a team from the education faculty. Topics including educational psychology and philosophy are taught, and during this time a stimulated program is utilized. Situational classroom problems are presented via film, role playing, and reading. A discussion follows as to the methods of handling these cases. Microteaching sessions are also conducted, with the student performance recorded on tapes and replayed as a basis for discussion of the correction of mistakes. Those involved feel that the microteaching has improved and accelerated the involvement of the student teacher with the teaching process. (JLF)
