A Dose of Reality for Future Teachers.
Edwards, June
Educational Leadership, v54 n3 p56-57 Nov 1996
To help future teachers understand how problems of poverty, abuse, and indifferent medical care affect children's learning, the elementary education faculty at SUNY-College at Oneonta (New York) instituted a new graduation requirement called "Early Field Experiences." Elementary education majors must complete 40 hours of field observations in various service agency and school settings. (MLH)
