MIDDLE LEVEL 4-8 EDUCATION Bachelor of Science Degree
Mission of the Middle Level Program: Gannon University’s Middle Level Grades 4-8 program prepares skilled professionals who improve the educational experiences of young adolescents by designing and delivering multifaceted, integrative, challenging, and engaging curricula, instruction, and assessment. Gannon’s Grades 4-8 Middle Level Certification programs lead to a Bachelor of Science degree with certification in nine possible areas. The curriculum provides extensive fieldbased experiences in both self-contained and content-specific classrooms in rural, urban and suburban classrooms. The professional education core creates a foundation for successful clinical practice. This core set of courses emphasizes middle level philosophy and strategies for success with young adolescents, regardless of whether the school is an elementary, middle or junior high school. The curriculum includes courses designed to provide content-area expertise as well as foundational knowledge in all core subject areas. These courses require field-based experiences that total approximately 340 hours before student teaching.
