60-69 Hours (Online) Non-Licensure
The B.S. in Elementary Education is designed for Paraprofessionals who have already obtained an Associate’s degree and wish to obtain an alternative teaching credential in Oklahoma that will allow them to obtain a teaching credential in their own state through a reciprocity program. The program is 100% online, competency-based, and job-embedded. The Oklahoma Christian University Bachelor’s in Elementary Education, offered in partnership with BloomBoard, Inc., is aligned to the 2011 version of the Interstate Teacher Assessment and Support Consortium (InTASC) core teaching standards. Teachers who successfully complete this degree have demonstrated these skills within their classroom and school through portfolio based artifacts. In addition to the InTASC standards, Biblically-based lessons will be integrated throughout the program on self-leadership (character), connecting with others, leading others, changing culture, and spiritual leadership.
