Student Teaching e-Handbook

 

  Une version française (préliminaire) de l'e-Guide est disponible ici.

 

Please note that as of Fall 2018, for sustainability and accuracy-of-information purposes, all information about, and forms for, Field Experiences and Internships will solely be housed on the ISA website in this section. (Printed "Guides" and "Packages" will no longer be available.)

Student Teachers, Co-operating Teachers, Field Supervisors, and School Administrators should review the content here for the most up-to-date information about Field Experiences and Internships at McGill University in the Faculty of Education. Partners are welcome to print the pages; however, in the event of a discrepancy between the print-out and the website, the latter will prevail. Any notable amendments made to the website will be flagged as *NEW* for one (1) academic year.
