Internships
At Humboldt State Univerity I had two opportunities to intern with experienced professors in my field. In the classes listed below, I was able to participate in the grading process, creating assignemnts and lesson plans, and leading my own lectures.
In order to prepare for these interships, I also enrolled in Education 582 with Professor Sally Botzler in which I became familiarized with various techniques. For example, one thing I took away from that experience was this Interdisciplinary Lesson Plan [pdf].
