Our vision is to prepare knowledgeable, skillful, and virtuous educators according to internationally-recognized standards, who will be able to teach all students regardless of their differences and be able speak with the world, work with the world, and compete with the world.
In order to prepare the educators described in the vision, the University Within School will be implemented. The implementation of this model requires an academic partnership between MEF University Faculty of Education and K-12 schools. This partnership requires collaboration between education faculty members, K-12 educators, and prospective teachers for investigation of educational problems, guided practice of the prospective educators, and professional development of K-12 teachers and university faculty. More importantly, collaboration is needed to support the achievement of K-12 students. A partnership will also be established between MEF University Faculty of Education and public schools. Prospective educators will be encouraged and supported to gain international experience through collaborating with universities and K-12 Schools and Europe and America.
