PROJECT MEET

Abstract

The Faculty of Education at McGill University has embarked on an internship programfor the preparation of elementary school teachers. In 1967-68, Project MEET (McGill Elementary Education Teaching-Teams) includes nineteen carefully selected university graduates who have been placed in eleven cooperating schools. Interns participate in lectures and seminars at Macdonald College and spend three full days each week in the schools where they are supervised both by members of the school staff and by College supervisors. Each intern has been awarded a bursary of $1500 and these awards have been financed by the cooperating school systems.
