FELConline 2.0: Supporting Quality Pre-service Teacher Education

FELConline 2.0 (or the Field Experience Learning Community 2.0) is a short and free online micro-credential course intended to support associate teachers, teacher candidates, university supervisors and school administrators as they implement their roles within the field experience or practicum component of initial or pre-service teacher education programs. Every pre-service teacher education program is unique in how the courses and field experiences or practica are organized, and FELConline 2.0 provides research-based best practices to optimize the learning and growth of our future teachers, regardless of program. It is organized around four modules centred on: 1) the various roles in the field experience; 2) preparation for the field experience; 3) planning during the field experience; and 4) feedback during the field experience.
