Office of the Teacher Education Program
The teacher education programs at University of Washington, which includes pathways in Elementary Education, Secondary Education and Special Education, emphasizes strong knowledge of academic subject matter, continuous involvement in both course work and field work, and a commitment to preparing new teachers to work effectively with students in culturally and racially diverse communities.
Our programs reflect a strong orientation toward inquiry, both in the practices we promote among teachers, and with regard to examining the effectiveness of our own work.
