SMTC TSS Application Writing Sample
|
|
In the space provided below, describe in detail your responses to the following

and will play an important role in the evaluation of your application. Clarity in
the presentation of ideas and your ability to write at a graduate student level
will be considered. Responses should be thoughtful, clear, well-written, and reflect
who you are as a teacher and a colleague (approximately 3-5 paragraphs).

1) Describe in detail why you wish to pursue a Master of Science in Natural Science

2) As someone who has completed, or is currently involved in, the Teton Science
Schools Professional Residency Program, describe a situation that you were particularly
proud of where you were involved in teaching science to a group. Describe the situation,
the group that was taught, the science content taught, your responsibility for the
instruction (e.g., individual instructor, working in a team), your instructional
approach, how the class was assessed, what you felt went well, and what you would
change and why.
