Notes	Welcome to TED 421! In this student teaching seminar, you're going to be supported by your peers and instructors throughout the student teaching experience to help you become a more effective beginning teacher.

You'll find space to step back from your teaching to really think about your own purposes for teaching from historical, philosophical, legal and ethical perspectives. This will help you apply these learnings as you craft a personal philosophy of education, design a professional development plan, and prepare to interview for teaching positions. There will be opportunities to both celebrate successes and problem-solve challenges within your teaching practices.
