Impacting futures... one mind at a time
Teaching is a calling…students engage in service learning as a component of teaching and learning 

• Student organizations offer multiple opportunities to serve
• The education department has a strong relationship with the Mitchell Public Schools.

DWU education curriculum is setting the standard…we believe future teachers need to be well-prepared, dedicated, and professional

• Education majors are equipped with laptops to enhance their learning environment
• DWU education majors create Personal Electronic Portfolios (PEP) compiled of documentation and evidence of professional preparation

Real experiences in real classrooms with real teachers….begin as early as your freshman year

• Most DWU teacher candidates experience over 200 hours in real classrooms before they student teach

Positive Relationships with faculty…our friendly and highly competent faculty members provide individual guidance and direction

• All classes remain small to allow for effective interaction
