Program Description

Justin Becker

Evergreen’s MIT Program is a nationally recognized, academically rigorous, state-accredited teacher preparation program. This interdisciplinary program is based on a multicultural, democratic, developmental perspective seeking to prepare the finest teachers possible to support the development of all children. Our graduates are knowledgeable, competent professionals who can assume leadership roles in curriculum development, assessment, child advocacy and anti-bias work.

We seek candidates with strong reasoning skills and with passionate interests in a variety of areas. We encourage applications from those who are open to critical, constructive feedback, have a genuine interest in their own intellectual, political, and emotional growth, care about the development of the whole child or youth, and are invested in serving the communities where they will teach. We invite applications from groups underrepresented in Washington's population of teachers.

The 2009-2011 cohort theme is Thinking Globally, Teaching Locally: Educating for Active Citizenship. Read the detailed description and check out the tentative schedule. The 2009-2011 faculty also share their profiles and thoughts about the Program.
