Aadsa Maa Aru Maa Giguckiigash (The ones that teach our children
how everything on this earth works) program at FBCC will begin
admitting students in the Teacher Education Department for
preparation of the baccalaureate degrees in the Fall of 2009.
Its aim is to bring focus and emphasis on science and math in
order to boost those academic areas in the Fort Berthold schools.
During their junior and senior years, students will work as a
cohort or learning community, taking courses together and
interacting in a weekly teacher education seminar to build, reflect,
and gain perspective on ideas that were discussed during the week.
Mission and Vision of the Teacher Education Department:
