May a student teacher who is assigned to an eMINTS classroom participate in eMINTS PD or eMINTS Replacement PD with his/her supervising teacher?
A. Student teachers assigned to teachers in official eMINTS classrooms may participate in eMINTS professional development sessions (and be provided with materials) delivered by eMINTS staff with their supervising teachers at no cost. It is recommended that student teachers of eMINTS PD or eMINTS Replacement PD participants who receive their professional development from PD4ETS participants or certified eMINTS Instructional Specialists be allowed to attend sessions with their supervising teachers. Student teachers who attend eMINTS PD or eMINTS Replacement PD with their supervising teachers are not considered to be official eMINTS teachers upon the completion of student teaching unless the student teacher has completed approved undergraduate course work and field experiences affiliated with the eMINTS National Center.
