the following:

experiences that lead to student learning in an
environment that fosters the development of the
whole person.
-
Teachers must be knowledgeable
in their subject areas and must understand human
development and learning.
-
Teachers must be able to put knowledge
to use in skillful lesson planning, decision making,
and interactive methodology.

It is important that teachers be role models: people

of the teaching profession. The Christian educator
must be committed to Christian values and should apply
these in service. The School of Education at PBU seeks
