There are many requirements that I need to meet if I am planning to have a career in education. Before I enrolled into this class, I had no idea the steps I had to take in order for me to become a teacher. The activity that Dr. Theresa created for the class where we had to research the state requirements of teaching was extremely useful for me (the site that I obtained the answers is http://www.mainedepartmentofeducation.com/). After we researched the information, we had to blog a page on Chapter One: Becoming a Teacher. Reading this chapter was also extremely helpful. I need to become familar standards for P-12 students and teachers. I am assessed on the knowledge, skills, and dispositions of standards. Most states require that I pass one or more licensure tests before I am granted a teaching license (such as Praxis I, Praxis II, or even Praxis III). Teachers with three years of experience are eligible to apply for national certification by the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards.
The only question I have about becoming a teacher is how can I become involved in substitute teaching? The reason why I would like to begin substitute teaching is because I feel that it would add on to my experience in becoming a teacher.
