Does micro-teaching work for ag. literacy?

How long are lesson plans?

Who will I teach my lesson to?

Teaching methods

• AEE 412 is the class for you :-)

Can you use someone else's lesson plan and add/subtract from it?

I want to learn how to be certified to teach.

• Visit with Dr. Ewing, if you have questions on certification.

Ag standards for PA?

• There are no official Ag. Standards for PA, but you can find the suggested standards/benchmarks at http://www.education.state.pa.us/portal/server.pt/community/teacher_resources/7392/agricultural_education/507869 under the "Vision for Ag. Ed." book. They are at the end of the handbook.
