Applied Technology Management - Broadfield Teaching Option
https://www.montana.edu/agtecheducation/
Technology Education is an integrated discipline designed to develop students' technological literacy. Through the study of technological systems, and associated resources, processes, and societal impacts, students will gain understanding of technology’s roles in past, present and future society. The Technology Education Broadfield Teaching program at MSU is for individuals wishing to teach industrial technology at the middle or high school level or to work within an industry where a broad understanding of industrial technological concepts is important. The option is designed for in-depth study of Technology Education and prepares completers for careers as teachers in 5-12 settings.
The Technology Education Program is sequenced into three phases to develop a progression of interrelated information. The foundation phase constitutes the introduction to technology. This introduction forms the base for future study and an understanding of basic technological concepts. The synthesis phase begins the in-depth study of the primary technology education components of communication, construction, manufacturing, and power/energy. During this phase students in the teaching option are involved in professional education coursework, while students in the industrial technology option begin selecting coursework that is tailored to meet specific career goals. The capstone phase is structured to integrate the information and experiences of the preceding phases through applied learning activities. Teaching option students will complete a semester-long teaching candidacy program at the middle/high school level. Students in 5-12 and K-12 teaching majors are required to take courses in certain areas of professional education. A grade of "C" or better is required in all professional education courses; a "C-" is not acceptable. See the Teacher Education Program website for entrance requirements.
