| The Department of History cooperates with the College of
Education (COE) to provide guidance to and advice for undergraduate
history majors who intend to pursue a career in teaching at the
secondary (high school) level. Although secondary teaching
certification is now offered as a Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT) by
the College of Education, the Department of History has paternered with
the College of Education to recommend a course of study for teaching
track undergraduates that provides 1) a sound foundation in essential
content; 2) appropriate preparation for the Georgia Assessment for
Certification of Educators (GACE) exam; and 3) a seamless transition
into the MAT program. Students who have questions about the BA Teaching Track (BATT) should consult the College of Education and the Department of History BATT Director, Dr. Donald Rakestraw. |
