Education Student Services (ESS)

The Education Student Services office, located in Nance-Boyer 1012, is the place to go for information about how to become a teacher. Here students can get information about advisement and enrollment, program admission, field experience, and licensure from a team of people who know or can find the answers. General information can be found below and more specific information is located in the Undergraduate Handbook and the Student Teaching Handbook found under the Handbook Section of the Undergraduate Section

Education Student Services is staffed by the following people:

Advisement & Enrollment
All students majoring in elementary education and early childhood education are advised by Lorinda Rogers. Mrs. Rogers will advise you about the best course sequence and necessary prerequisites. Typically, summer and fall enrollment begins after spring break and spring enrollment begins after fall break.

Students who wish to enroll during the first week of enrollment can sign up for an appointment with Mrs. Rogers during the week before enrollment begins in the ESS Office, Nance-Boyer 1012. Students are encouraged to meet with Mrs. Rogers for advisement before peak enrollment times to determine the best course sequence—this makes enrolling much easier. Ultimately, to insure advisement at a time that is convenient for you, we advise you to make an appointment with Mrs. Rogers.

Program Admission
All students who are working toward education degrees will need to be admitted to the Teacher Education program. To be admitted, students must complete an application for admission, submit favorable faculty recommendations, successfully complete an admissions interview, verify a passing score on a lesson plan through Chalk & Wire, and submit passing scores on the OGET. Other admission criteria include passing scores on the Nelson Denny test and in identified courses. Details can be found in the Undergraduate Student Handbook.

Interviews for admission occur five times during the year, corresponding with the return of OGET scores. Students should begin the process for gaining admission to the program by contacting Ramona Mott in the ESS office.

Teacher Licensure
Students who complete bachelor’s degrees in education at Cameron may apply for Oklahoma Teaching Licenses in their subject areas through the university. Ramona Mott oversees the state licensure application process including the verification of state test scores and the completion of paperwork. Additionally, Mrs. Mott oversees the resident teacher program, which offers support to first year teachers in Oklahoma.

If you already hold a teaching license or certificate, we encourage you earn a graduate degree. Please see our graduate programs we have available.

Field Experiences
Many courses in Cameron’s education programs include field experiences that are completed in the public schools. As you move through the programs you will participate in a range of experiences from observing a classroom teacher to working with small groups of students to teaching a whole class of students. Field experiences are completed in a variety of diverse settings. All field placements are initiated during class and are made by Dr. Glazer through the Education Student Services office.
