CTE Intern Program
 

The Intern Program is for high school and college students who have shown both artistic and technical skill and who have shown exceptional leadership skills.   It promotes  youth mentoring youth, with the guidance and support of skilled adults.  To meet our interns for the current season, see CTE Interns.

 

The program consists of comprehensive training for high-school age interns in the areas of:

  • Lesson Planning

  • Curriculum Development

  • Stages of Child Development

  • Classroom Teaching Skills

  • CPR/First Aid

  • Behavior Management

  • Creating and Leading an Artistic Process

  • Development of their own work that they will direct for the Arts Festival workshop, art appreciation, and personal artistic skill development.

The interns are involved in almost every stage of planning for the summer. They help to :

  • Choose and define workshop themes

  • Structure the daily schedule

  • Identify lesson topics of interest to our students

  • Address issues of how to carry out the philosophy of CTE into the classroom and rehearsal setting.

Some interesting points about our training program are that while our interns vary in experience levels, (0-5 years as a CTE intern), they all participate in the training planning together with more experienced interns helping to teach/lead activities.

 

Teamwork, support, and respect are emphasized in every activity that the interns participate in and plan. It is also our belief that the interns should be practicing what they teach personally, so we are attempting to integrate master classes for the interns to tune their skills, in addition to participating in Intensive. 

 

Go to our Forms page to access the Intern Application and Selection Process document.

 

There are currently two openings for new Interns for the 2008 season. Applications are currently being accepted. The deadline for applications is April 15, 2008. Candidates will be scheduled for interviews in May 2008.

 

Intern Resource Library

 

We have begun to gather materials for an intern resource library. As of now, all the materials the interns use (books, cd's, etc.) are the staff's personal resources. 

 

Please call, write or email CTE if you have material you would like to donate.
