EDU 530 Overview

This course is a directed study, independent course. Students in this class have one or more Wisconsin Administrative licenses and are seeking the Director of Instruction license (Wisconsin DPI license #10). EDU 530 is the first of two 1-credit classes to be completed for the student to be eligible for the Director of Instruction license. Successful completion of this course, defined as a grade of B or better, and EDU 531 will result in the student being eligible for Wisconsin License #10 as a Director of Instruction. The course is two-pronged. The student will engage a supervised practicum of experiences in the areas of responsibility of a Director of Instruction. Supervision will be provided by the Instructor and a District Supervisor. In addition, the student will complete a Field Work Experience, which is a project done by the student in the district during the course of study that is also reflective of areas of responsibility for a Director of Instruction. A summarizing paper, meeting APA specifications, is required as part of the Field Work Experience.
