Lasher PhD Associate Dean Marilyn C. Kameen EdD Associate Dean _________________________________________ GENERAL INFORMATION ___________________ MISSION AND FUNCTIONS The University of Texas at Austin, through the College of Education, is committed to the training of teachers and other educators who are dedicated to the employment and advancement of education for all people. In pursuing this mission, the College of Education performs several functions. First, it is a professional school offering two degrees: the Bachelor of Science in Applied Learning and Development and the Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology. Both degree programs offer majors that lead to teacher certification, one for elementary school teachers, the other for secondary school and all-level kinesiology teachers. Second, the college provides the professional sequence of education courses and serves as the selection and advising agent for all students pursuing certification to teach in Texas, whether they are enrolled in the College of Education or in another division of the University. Third, the college offers degree programs that do not lead to teacher certification. These programs, in youth and community studies, health promotion and fitness, and kinesiology, are designed to meet the professional needs of public and private educational and community service agencies. Fourth, as a unit of the Graduate School, the College of Education offers courses and curricula leading to advanced professional certificates and to master's degrees and doctoral degrees in education. It also provides in-service training and consulting services for those engaged in the educational professions. Fifth, departments in the college offer courses in general education as well as in various specialties suitable for students pursuing vocational objectives other than teaching. The college is also a center for research, experimentation, and a wide variety of direct services to school systems and other educational enterprises. FACILITIES The instructional and research programs of the College of Education are carried out in six buildings. The primary facility, the Education Building, contains classrooms, extensive computer facilities, electronic media resources, observation rooms, a learning technology center, and faculty offices. Bellmont Hall, the primary facility for the Department of Kinesiology and Health Education, houses classrooms, research laboratories, gymnasium and locker facilities, racquetsport courts, and faculty offices. College of Education faculty members and programs are also housed in Anna Hiss Gymnasium, the Education Annex, Gregory Gymnasium, and the Lee and Joe Jamail Texas Swimming Center. Together, these buildings provide more than 800,000 square feet of space for College of Education programs. FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AVAILABLE THROUGH THE COLLEGE OF EDUCATION Scholarships as well as graduate fellowships and assistantships are available to students in the College of Education. Application for undergraduate awards should be made to the Office of the Dean, Education Building 216; graduate students should inquire in their departmental offices. Generally, applications are accepted in March for the following academic year. STUDENT SERVICES The Office of the Dean of the College of Education provides a variety of student services, including maintenance of student records, academic counseling, certification counseling, and official evaluations of the student's academic standing and progress toward a degree. Students are encouraged to contact the office whenever they have questions about degree requirements, academic standing, teacher certification, general University regulations, or registration. The office is also a good source of general information and referral that students are urged to use when they have questions or problems of any nature. STUDENT ORGANIZATIONS The Education Council is the official channel for student participation in policy formulation and evaluation and in development of student activities in the college. Voluntary organizations in the college include the Kinesiology Club, Mu Iota Epsilon (Society of Minorities in Education), the Student Council for Exceptional Children, and the Texas Student Education Association. Pi Lambda Theta, Phi Delta Kappa, and Kappa Delta Pi are honorary organizations for men and women. EDUCATION PLACEMENT SERVICE The University operates the Education Placement Service to provide a liaison between University students and prospective employers. All candidates for teacher certification must register with the Education Placement Service, Education Building 294, at the beginning of their student-teaching semester. As a complement to the assistance available from the college, the University Career Center provides comprehensive career services to all students. The center offers professional assistance to students in choosing or changing their majors or careers, seeking an internship, and planning for the job search or for graduate study. The University makes no promise to secure employment for each graduate. _________________________________________ ADMISSION AND REGISTRATION __________________________ ADMISSION TO THE PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT SEQUENCE IN TEACHER CERTIFICATION PROGRAMS Admission and readmission of all students to the University is the responsibility of the director of admissions. Information on University admission requirements and procedures is given in General Information. To enter the professional development sequence of courses, students seeking teacher certification must 1. Pass each part of a competence examination in reading, writing, and mathematics. This examination, the Texas Academic Skills Program (TASP) test, is administered by National Evaluation Systems; it is an assessment of basic college-level skills for all students as well as a part of the teacher certification process. Minimum qualifying scores for certification candidates are determined by the Teacher Education Committee and may exceed the scores required of other students by the state. 2. Complete at least seventy-two semester hours of college coursework with an acceptable grade point average. A University grade point average of at least 2.50 is required for consideration. Transfer students must also present a grade point average of at least 2.50 on all college work taken elsewhere. 3. Complete a minimum amount of prerequisite coursework. Those interested in elementary certification must complete nine semester hours in applied learning and development, Kinesiology 314, and Mathematics 316L; those interested in secondary certification must complete six semester hours in applied learning and development and at least six semester hours in each field for which certification is sought. 4. Receive the approval of the Professional Education Admissions Committee. The student must submit an application for admission to professional education courses by March 1 for entrance in the fall semester or by October 1 for entrance in the spring semester. Application forms are available in the Office of the Dean, Education Building 216. The application process allows the student to outline his or her background and motivation to enter the teaching profession as well as any special circumstances affecting his or her situation. The committee's decision is based on the applicant's completion of the academic eligibility requirements and suitability for the teaching profession as demonstrated by the application, essay, and, in some cases, an admission interview. The committee considers University grades in the teaching fields as well as the cumulative University grade point average, because a secondary certification applicant must have a University grade point average of at least 2.50 in his or her teaching field (or, for those with two fields, a grade point average of at least 2.65 in one field and of at least 2.25 in the other) as well as a cumulative University grade point average of at least 2.50 to qualify for student teaching. Each student who submits an application by the deadline and meets the academic eligibility criteria will receive full consideration by the committee; however, fulfillment of these requirements does not ensure committee approval. REGISTRATION General Information gives information about registration, adding and dropping courses, transfer from one division of the University to another, and auditing a course. The Course Schedule, published each semester and summer session, includes registration instructions, advising locations, and the times, places, and instructors of classes. The Course Schedule is available at campus-area bookstores before registration. ACADEMIC ADVISING The College of Education requires all students seeking a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology to have their schedules approved by a faculty adviser each time they register. Those seeking elementary teaching certification and a Bachelor of Science in Applied Learning and Development may self-advise when they register but are urged to see an adviser if any question arises. Information about specific advising locations is available in departmental offices as well as in the Office of the Dean. Students are also encouraged to see their advisers at least once a year at some time other than registration to discuss their programs in an unhurried manner. As part of the advising process, the College of Education publishes Teacher Education: A Student Handbook. The handbook outlines degree programs, testing requirements, application deadlines, and other pertinent matters. It serves as a detailed advising guide for most academic questions within the College of Education and is available in the Office of the Dean, Education Building 216. _________________________________________ ACADEMIC POLICIES AND PROCEDURES ________________________________ CERTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS Information about legal requirements for certification to teach is available from the teacher certification officer, Education Building 216, or from the Texas Education Agency, 1701 North Congress Avenue, Austin, Texas 78701. Application for the certificate should be made at the Certification Office, Education Building 216. In accordance with Article 6252-13C, Texas Civil Statutes, the commissioner of education may suspend or revoke a teaching certificate or refuse to issue a teaching certificate for a person who has been convicted of a felony or misdemeanor for a crime that directly relates to the duties and responsibilities of the teaching profession. Students who have completed all necessary academic requirements for certification are also required to achieve a satisfactory level of performance on the Examination for the Certification of Educators in Texas (ExCET). In addition, students seeking certification to teach French or Spanish in elementary or secondary school must earn a passing score at the advanced level on the Texas Oral Proficiency Test (TOPT) in the appropriate language. DEAN'S HONOR ROLL The purpose of the Dean's Honor Roll is to commend students for distinguished academic achievement in a specific semester. The honor roll is prepared at the end of each long-session semester. To be included, a first-year student must earn fifty-four grade points for honors and at least fifty-five grade points for high honors. Students beyond their first year must earn at least fifty- five grade points for honors and at least sixty for high honors. _________________________________________ GRADUATION __________ SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS OF THE COLLEGE OF EDUCATION All students must fulfill the general requirements for graduation given in chapter 1. Students in the College of Education must also fulfill the following requirements. 1. The University requires that the student complete at least two long-session semesters, or an equivalent period, in residence. To receive a degree from the College of Education, the student must have been registered in the college for at least two long-session semesters or the equivalent. 2. A candidate for a degree must be registered in the College of Education either in residence or in absentia the semester or summer session the degree is to be awarded and must apply to the dean for the degree no later than the date specified in the official academic calendar. APPLYING FOR A DEGREE Each student seeking a degree from the College of Education should apply for a degree audit upon completing seventy-five semester hours of coursework. The application for the degree audit is filed in the student dean's office, Education Building 216. The degree audit is essential to ensure that the student meets all degree requirements. The student is responsible for meeting degree requirements, but the dean's office will assist in preventing errors if given the opportunity. An applicant for a degree must be registered in the college for the semester or summer session at the end of which the degree is to be granted. In the final semester or summer session, a candidate for graduation must apply for the degree by the deadline given in the official academic calendar, and should have had a degree audit. _________________________________________ DEGREES _______ GENERAL REQUIREMENTS 1. As a prerequisite to student teaching, students seeking a secondary school teaching certificate must complete in residence at least six semester hours of upper-division coursework in each of two areas of specialization, or at least nine semester hours of upper-division coursework in a composite specialization. Student teaching must also be completed in residence. Those seeking elementary school certification must complete in residence at least twelve semester hours in the professional development sequence, including student teaching. Residence credit includes only courses taken at the University; it does not include credit by examination or courses taken by extension or correspondence. 2. Courses numbered in two departments, one of which is in the College of Education, may not be used to satisfy noneducation elective requirements for degree purposes. 3. Each degree program is arranged in the sequence best calculated to ensure orderly progress of the student's college work. Any student who registers for twelve semester hours or more in a long-session semester must include at least nine semester hours of coursework listed as basic education requirements for the degree being sought until each of these requirements has been fulfilled. At the dean's discretion, adjustments may be made when exceptional circumstances exist, or when a student has gained credit through examination, or when the student is enrolling for fewer than twelve semester hours of credit in a long-session semester. 4. Except as otherwise indicated, credit by examination is treated as any other earned credit in meeting degree requirements. 5. The list of courses required for an area of specialization is informational. Each list as a whole defines the nature and distribution of the specialization; advisers, with the dean's approval, may substitute other courses serving equivalent purposes. Since course offerings are subject to change, the courses listed under an area of specialization may change with each issue of the catalog, but the total number of semester hours and the number of upper-division semester hours required for each specialization can be changed only by action of the General Faculty. 6. Courses used to fulfill basic education requirements may also be used in establishing an area of specialization, but the total number of semester hours required for the degree is unchanged. A single course may not be used to meet more than two separate degree requirements. 7. Each student in a teacher certification program must be tested for tuberculosis before beginning public school fieldwork and must demonstrate speech adequacy before being certified. Speech adequacy is assessed in the required professional education courses Curriculum and Instruction 331C and 332S. Students who demonstrate poor speaking skill in one of these courses must complete a performance course such as Speech 305 or Drama 301L. 8. To graduate, all students must have a University grade point average of at least 2.00. In addition, a secondary school certification student must have a University grade point average of at least 2.25 in courses applicable to the areas of specialization to qualify for teacher certification; to enroll in student teaching, the student must present a University grade point average of at least 2.50 and a grade point average of at least 2.50 in each area of specialization, or of at least 2.65 in one area of specialization and of at least 2.25 in the other. Those with a composite specialization must present a grade point average of at least 2.50 in that specialization. A student who seeks elementary school certification must present a University grade point average of at least 2.50 to enroll in student teaching. 9. All University students seeking teacher certification, including those who have already earned degrees, must pass the Texas Academic Skills Program (TASP) examination before they begin professional development sequence coursework in education. APPLICABILITY OF CERTAIN COURSES Physical Activity Courses Physical activity (PED) courses are offered by the Department of Kinesiology and Health Education. While physical instruction is not a degree requirement in the College of Education, students are encouraged to take physical activity courses, particularly in activities that can be pursued throughout a lifetime. Three semester hours of physical activity coursework may be counted as electives toward any College of Education degree. All physical activity courses are counted among courses for which the student is enrolled, and the grades are included in the grade point average. ROTC Courses A maximum of nine semester hours of credit in air force science, military science, or naval science may be used as free electives in any degree plan of the College of Education. Correspondence and Extension Courses Credit that a University student in residence earns simultaneously by correspondence or extension from the University or elsewhere or in residence at another school will not be counted toward a degree in the College of Education unless specifically approved in advance by the dean. No more than 30 percent of the semester hours required for any degree offered in the College of Education may be taken by correspondence. BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN APPLIED LEARNING AND DEVELOPMENT A total of at least 130 semester hours of credit, forty-two of which must be upper-division, is required for the degree. The curriculum for the degree has three components: (a) the basic education requirements, sixty-one semester hours of coursework in arts and sciences; (b) a major course of study, with the number of specified hours varying with the major chosen; and (c) electives. Each major consists of areas of specialization in subject fields used in public schools or in educational or community service organizations, a professional development sequence of courses, and field experiences. Students may major in applied learning and development, which can lead to elementary certification with the opportunity for a specialization in reading or added certification in bilingual education; or in youth and community studies, which does not lead to teacher certification. Basic Education Requirements The basic education requirements below apply to both majors leading to the Bachelor of Science in Applied Learning and Development. AREA A: ENGLISH, WRITING, FOREIGN LANGUAGE 1. English: English 306, 316K, and three semester hours in another English course. In addition, three semester hours of literature for children is required; Library and Information Science 322T is acceptable. 2. Writing: In addition to English 306 and 316K, the student must complete six semester hours in courses certified as having a substantial writing component. These courses are identified in the Course Schedule. Three of these six semester hours, either in English or in another subject, must be at the upper- division level. 3. Foreign language: All beginning students entering the College of Education must have completed two years in a single foreign language in high school. In addition, students must demonstrate proficiency in a single foreign language equivalent to that shown by completion of the second college semester in the language; proficiency is usually shown by earning credit for language courses 506 and 507 or the equivalent. Students who enter the University with fewer than two high school units in a single foreign language must take the two college semesters in a language without degree credit to remove their language deficiency. Prospective Texas teachers are strongly encouraged to take Spanish to fulfill the language requirement. Although the foreign language requirement is the attainment of a certain proficiency, rather than the completion of a specified number of hours, the courses taken to gain this proficiency are not electives and may not be taken on the pass/fail basis. Any part of the requirement may be fulfilled by credit by examination. To achieve proficiency as rapidly as possible, qualified students are urged to take the intensive foreign language study program. Information about this program is available from the appropriate language department. Courses used to fulfill the foreign language requirement must be language courses; literature-in-translation courses, for example, may not be counted. The College of Education has developed an experimental program that allows qualified students to substitute nine semester hours in specific multicultural courses for the foreign language requirement. This program is open only to students who have completed two years of a single foreign language in high school. Acceptable substitute courses include Applied Learning and Development 327, Curriculum and Instruction 371 (Topic 17: Multicultural Education), either African and African American Studies 301 or Mexican American Studies 318, and other multicultural courses approved by the student dean's office, Education Building 216. AREA B: SOCIAL SCIENCES 1. History 315K and 315L, or six semester hours in other United States history courses that fulfill the legislative requirement described in chapter 1. 2. Government 310L and 312L. 3. Geography 305. 4. Psychology 301. AREA C: MATHEMATICS AND NATURAL SCIENCES 1. Three semester hours chosen from Mathematics 303D, 305G, and 316. Coursework in calculus may be substituted for all or part of this three-semester-hour requirement. 2. Three semester hours in computer applications chosen from computer sciences, management information systems, and courses in computer literacy. 3. Six semester hours in one of the following: astronomy, biological sciences, chemistry, geology, physical science, and physics. 4. Three additional semester hours in mathematics, computer applications, astronomy, biological sciences, chemistry, geology, physical science, physics, experimental psychology, physical anthropology, physical geography, or history of science and philosophy of science. At least one laboratory course must be taken as part of the science requirement. AREA D: GENERAL CULTURE 1. Three semester hours in art (including art history, design, studio art, visual art studies), drama, or music (including music, instruments, ensemble). 2. Three semester hours in architecture, courses offered by the College of Fine Arts, classics (including classical civilization, Greek, Latin), or philosophy (excluding courses in logic). 3. Documented evidence of proficiency in oral communication. For elementary certification students, proficiency is assessed in Curriculum and Instruction 331C. Students who lack speech proficiency must take three semester hours chosen from Speech 305, 319, Drama 301K, 301L, 378C, 378E, and 378G. It is recommended that teacher certification students meet requirements 1 and 2 with six semester hours chosen from Drama 378C, 378E, 378G, Music 313, 354, Visual Art Studies 221C, 121D, 222C, and 122D, since these courses cover the essential elements of knowledge in the fine arts needed by an elementary school teacher. Major Requirements APPLIED LEARNING AND DEVELOPMENT Students who have completed a teaching certification major in applied learning and development may be entitled to teach grades one through eight after meeting additional state requirements. By following certain options within this program, students may also become qualified for a reading specialization or certification in bilingual education. For the major in applied learning and development, students must complete the following prescribed work in areas of specialization, in applied learning and development, and in professional development in addition to the basic education requirements and electives. 1. Prescribed work in areas of specialization a.

BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN KINESIOLOGY The degree program in kinesiology offers two majors: kinesiology, and health promotion and fitness. The field of kinesiology consists of biomechanical, physiological, psychological, and sociocultural approaches to the study of movement. The kinesiology major is designed for students interested in studying human movement as a background for teacher certification in physical education, graduate study in sport and exercise sciences, or future study in movement-related areas such as physical therapy. The health promotion and fitness major is designed for students pursuing professional opportunities in wellness, health promotion, disease prevention, and fitness rehabilitation; it does not lead to teacher certification. A total of at least 130 semester hours of credit, forty-two of which must be upper-division, is required for the degree. The curriculum for the degree has three components: (a) the basic education requirements, fifty-eight semester hours of coursework in arts and sciences; (b) a major course of study, with the number of specified hours varying with the major chosen; and (c) electives. Basic Education Requirements The basic education requirements below apply to both majors leading to the Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology degree. However, each major calls for specific courses to meet one or more of the basic education requirements; these modifications are given under the headings for the majors below. AREA A: ENGLISH, WRITING, FOREIGN LANGUAGE 1. English: English 306 and 316K. 2. Writing: In addition to the specified English courses, the student must complete six semester hours in courses certified as having a substantial writing component. These courses are identified in the Course Schedule. At least three of these six semester hours, either in English or in another subject, must be at the upper-division level. 3. Foreign language: All beginning students entering the College of Education must have completed two years in a single foreign language in high school. In addition, students must demonstrate proficiency in a single foreign language equivalent to that shown by completion of the second semester in the language; proficiency is usually shown by earning credit for language courses 506 and 507 or the equivalent. Students who enter the University with fewer than two high school units in a single foreign language must take the two college semesters in a language without degree credit to remove their language deficiency. Although the foreign language requirement is the attainment of a certain proficiency rather than the completion of a specified number of hours, the courses taken to gain this proficiency are not electives and may not be taken on the pass/fail basis. Any part of the requirement may be fulfilled by credit by examination. To achieve proficiency as rapidly as possible, qualified students are urged to take the intensive foreign language study program. Information about this program is available from the appropriate language department. Courses used to fulfill the foreign language requirement must be language courses; literature-in-translation courses, for example, may not be counted. The College of Education has developed an experimental program that allows qualified students to substitute nine semester hours in specific multicultural courses for the foreign language requirement. This program is open only to students who have completed two years of a single foreign language in high school. Acceptable substitute courses include Applied Learning and Development 327, Curriculum and Instruction 371 (Topic 17: Multicultural Education), either African and African American Studies 301 or Mexican American Studies 318, and other multicultural courses approved by the student dean's office, Education Building 216. AREA B: SOCIAL SCIENCES 1. History 315K and 315L, or six semester hours in other United States history courses that fulfill the legislative requirement described in chapter 1. 2. Government 310L and 312L. 3. Psychology 301. 4. Three semester hours in anthropology, economics, geography, linguistics, or sociology. AREA C: MATHEMATICS AND NATURAL SCIENCES 1. Three semester hours of mathematics. Kinesiology majors must complete either Mathematics 305G or coursework in calculus. Health promotion and fitness majors may choose any mathematics course, excluding Mathematics 301. 2. Biology 302 and Zoology 316K or 365L. 3. Six semester hours of chemistry. 4. Three additional semester hours chosen from astronomy, biological sciences, chemistry, computer sciences, geology, mathematics, physical science, physics, experimental psychology, physical anthropology, physical geography, and history of science and philosophy of science. No more than nine semester hours in one field may be counted toward fulfillment of the mathematics and natural sciences requirement. At least one laboratory course must be taken as part of the science requirement if teacher certification is desired. AREA D: GENERAL CULTURE 1. Three semester hours in architecture, art (including art history, design, studio art, visual art studies), classics (including classical civilization, Greek, Latin), drama, fine arts, music (including music, instruments, ensemble), or philosophy (excluding courses in logic). 2. Three semester hours in speech, emphasizing oral language proficiency.
