Aloha LTEC Ohana!
We would just like to share some good news with you concerning Laura Laolagi, a current LTEC PhD student. The following information is from a news article on the UHM COE website.
Twenty-one students in the UH Mānoa College of Education (COE) Territorial Teacher Training Assistance Program (TTTAP) graduated in American Sāmoa on June 17, 2019. The graduating class earned a Bachelor of Education Degree and included two COE cohorts – Cohort 32 Special Education & Elementary Education (dual degree) and Cohort 33 Early Childhood Elementary Education. Students who graduate from TTTAP get a running start with their careers, as they will be recommended for initial teacher licensure to the Hawaii Teachers Standards Board (HTSB) to teach elementary school students (K-6) in a general education classroom.
TTTAP began more than 35 years ago and is currently co-directed by Professor Deborah Zuercher and Laura Laolagi, a doctoral candidate in the college’s Learning Design and Technology program.
Congratulations to Laura for her impressive achievements, which could not have been accomplished without dedication and passion! We are very lucky to have her in our program.
Congratulations to all. This is an awesome picture.
