NC State’s College of Education prepares many of the most effective educators in North Carolina and beyond. A big reason for that—in addition to exceptional faculty and instructors—is the high-impact experiences that College of Education students receive. 

Here are six examples of the high-impact experiences your gifts made possible over the past year:

Costa Rica

🌎 You showed our students the world through study abroad opportunities, like our Transformational Scholars trip to Costa Rica.

Gabriel Castillo Calderon work with a student at a SAY Village field placement.

🏢 You prepared our students to advocate for youth through SAY Village, which is celebrating its 20th anniversary.

⚡You supplied our student teachers with materials and technology, such as a VR headset, that lets them ignite innovation in the classroom.

📦 You make it possible for our students to give back to their communities. Learn more about the internships they completed over the summer.
