DUAL CREDIT PROGRAM
CLASS/SITE VISIT OBSERVATION SUMMARY
University courses administered through dual credit/concurrent enrollment reflect the pedagogical, theoretical, and philosophical orientation of the university, the college, and the sponsoring faculty and/or academic department. As we visit your class we look for a clear presentation of the lesson and the development of the concepts with a rigor and depth of content equivalent to our on-campus courses. We also look for evidence that the teacher expects the student to complete college level work.
