The State Board of Education has approved a recommendation submitted by the Advisory Committee on Certification which will permit issuing standard secondary certificates to applicants who show 45 semester hours preparation in an approved teaching field in place of the 30 semester hour major and the 20 semester hour minor fields.
It is hoped that this program will result in strengthening teacher preparation in those fields where it has sometimes been difficult to emphasize sufficient preparation in a major field and still provide adequate preparation for teaching in a minor field.
Application of the single field endorsement seems particularly appropriate for certain programs of teacher preparation in vocational education and in music. The single field endorsement, however, may be applied to any teaching field common to Idaho secondary schools. Student advisors are urged to direct the attention of students to the somewhat limited opportunity for full-time employment in the single teaching field in some secondary schools and to urge preparation in more than one field whenever permitted by the program of the student. In departments where specific programs have not been developed, students may have programs developed in accordance with the intent of this alternative. Interested students should contact the chair of the appropriate area of interest and the Dean of the College of Education.
