Program Overview

The sequence embraces the ISU conceptual framework by addressing standards from Illinois Professional Teaching Standards, Illinois Business, Marketing, and Computer Education Content Standards, Illinois Core Language Arts Standards, Illinois Core Special Education Standards for all teachers and Core Technology Standards for teachers. These standards were established by the Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE), Council for Accreditation of Education Preparation (CAEP), International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE), and the National Association of Business Teacher Education (NABTE).

The Business Teacher Education program is part of the entitlement programming leading to the K-12 Specialist in Business, Marketing, and Computer Education endorsement. Initial employment opportunities include elementary, middle level and junior high level business and computer instruction/technology coordination; high school business, marketing, and computer teacher/coordinator, school/district computer teacher, business/industry trainer/instructor, and business professional. Graduates will be prepared to teach basic business, introduction to business, accounting, record keeping, business law, information processing, keyboarding, computer applications, consumer economics, personal finance, marketing, entrepreneurship, business communications, digital/multimedia, and web design.

Student teaching comprises a full semester experience with approximately six weeks in an elementary and/or middle level setting (5 credit hours) and approximately ten weeks in a secondary level setting (7 credit hours). Prior to student teaching, students complete at least 100 pre-clinical hours of field experience with a minimum of 30 hours in an elementary/middle school level setting and 70 hours in a secondary setting.
