BKIN + Bachelor of Education (BEd)
Purpose:
The development of dual degree opportunities is intended to engage students in the study of teacher education early in their academic career with a view to:
-
-
- Providing an opportunity to confirm interest in teaching
- Developing a teaching context within which academic studies will take place
- Creating a frame of reference for students to consider learning completed during academic studies in Physical Education
-
Benefits for Students:
-
-
- Students complete the requirements for two degrees, BKin and BEd Secondary, over a period of 5 years
- Students engage in teacher education earlier thereby confirming interest in and commitment to teaching
- Students gain experience and knowledge about the context of teaching to inform their academic studies
- Students finish both degrees with less credit requirements, as there is some reduction in total credits required for completion when compared to the traditional 4+1 post-degree option. This reduces tuition costs for students
- Students finish earlier than the traditional 4+1 post degree option.
- Students are eligible to apply for BC Provincial Teaching Certificate upon successful completion
- Students have the option of terminating BEd studies during the process, but remain eligible for completion of their initial degree
-
Structure:
