EIGHT The Ga2ette-Times, Heppner, Oregon, Thursday February 22, iva EOSC students get on-the-job training in Heppner schools Pre-Lenten luncheon and supper set for Tuesday at All Saints -if Heppner's teaching force received a dozen reinforce ments last week, in the form of sophomore and junior educa tion students from Eastern Oregon State College. The week provided the first opportunity for the 12 EOSC Introduction to Education stu dents to experience firsthand what life in front of a classroom is all about. It was also the first time that the EOSC class used Heppner as the site for its field experience week. In addition to classroom experience, the students got a taste of what the lifestyle of a teacher is like, since most of the students were houseguests of Heppner High and Heppner Elementary instructors during their stay here. "The response was good from our students," comment ed Heppner Elementary Prin cipal Don Cole. "They don't often get to know people who are college students. And it was a shot in the arm for the staff, too. It gave them something to look forward to, and I think it sharpened their skills, because they really wanted to be on their toes when working with the college kids." The EOSC students "have been college kids up to this point," noted Dr. Dayle Slater of the LaGrande college. "Now they have to take a look at what it's like to 'act like a teacher.'" While the experience rein forced the desires of many of the EOSC students to pursue careers in education, the time spent in Heppner classrooms may also help some of the education majors decide that teaching may not be their ideal occupation. Roughly one-third of the enrollees in Eastern Oregon's education program decide not to go into teaching, Dr. Slater noted. Donna Ragsdale, one of the eight EOSC students assigned to Heppner Elementary, ad mitted that her first day in front of a classroom was a bit harrowing. "It was a lot more tiring than I expected," she added, "But I got my second wind by the end of the week, and felt fairly comfortable." Her teaching experience at Heppner ranged from present ing lessons on fractions to basic Spanish. "The teachers here are really super," Donna added, "They really helped me to get involved with the program... The Heppner system seems to give its teachers quite a bit of say regarding what they want to teach," she noted. "It has a lot to offer." "This is a great group of kids," commented EOSC sophomore Maureen Kasnick. "They really seem interested in you, and want to talk with you all the time. It makes your ego feel good. I'm going to' miss them." f 5 Vm utinlnilHI)"1 John Ecklund, an EOSC student, shows Heppner High School art students the proper way to throw pottery.
