The academic year...would include...a new experimental full course [Introduction to Education], developed on a case and tutorial model, and designed to facilitate realistic entry into the educational profession. Full-time supervised practice with pay would be undertaken at the end of the year's residence, but the Masters' degree would not be awarded until satisfactory completion of this internship...
