Overview

Features

The Childhood Education with Bilingual Extension program offered at The City University of New York teachers to work in integrated, inclusive, bilingual/multicultural settings. It offers initial and professional certification in New York State upon (a) completion of required coursework, (b) submission of passing scores on the certification examinations, and (c) successful completion of a supervised teaching internship in grades 1-6.

The work of the Department is guided by a conceptual framework referred to as L.U.T.E. (Lehman Urban Teacher Education), which expresses the Department's commitment to developing competent, caring, and qualified educators for the nation's urban schools. Lehman gives teachers a focus on philosophy, trends, curriculum, methods, materials, and research in the field.

The bilingual extension option adds the possibility of initial certification with an emphasis on the bilingual/bicultural child. Courses of study in both programs provide an educational model based on child development and child study principles, New York State Education Department standards and core curriculum, and National Council for the Accreditation of Teacher Education (N.C.A.T.E.) standards as described by the National Association for the Education of Young Children (N.A.E.Y.C.).
