The Mada Maagarishtauo Awa Hee Aadsa Maa Aru Maa Giguckiigash (The ones that teach our children how everything on this earth works) program at NHSC prepares candidates to teach grades 1 through 6.
During their junior and senior years, candidates work as a cohort or learning community, taking courses together and interacting in a weekly teacher education seminar to build, reflect, and gain perspective on their experiences.
Continuance in Teacher Education
In order to continue in the teacher education program, the candidate must:
Maintain a minimum cumulative grade point average of 3.0 and earn a grade of a B or better in courses taken after admission to the program. Exhibit suitable character and evidence of good conduct, physical and mental health. Continue to obtain satisfactory recommendations from faculty, staff, and field experience supervisors. Prepare to pass the Praxis II exams with a satisfactory score required by the state of North Dakota for Principles of Learning and Teaching and Curriculum, Instruction and Assessment, Grades 1-6.
If requirements are not maintained, the Teacher Education Department and a committee consisting of faculty and staff may recommend probation or suspension from the program. Any such action would be reflected in a letter from the Teacher Education Department to the candidate.
Student Teaching
Student teaching is the concluding experience of the Teacher Education Program at Nueta Hidatsa Sahnish College. It is completed during the candidate’s final semester and requires at least 16 full-time consecutive weeks. During this time, candidates apply what they have learned through their college coursework and field experiences. Student teaching allows the pre-service teachers a time to plan and carry out lessons that follow our four core merits: culture, constructivism, comprehension, and CREDE. They also use a variety of assessment techniques to determine the suitability of the lessons, success of instruction and understanding of their own students. During this time, it is expected that the pre-service teachers will experience and learn additional decision-making skills, instructional approaches, classroom management courses of action, and general competence.
Criteria for Graduation and Licensure Recommendation
The Teacher Education Department makes the recommendation for graduation and teacher licensure. In order to graduate and be endorsed for licensure, a candidate must meet the following requirements:
Cumulative grade point average of 3.0 or better since admission to the Teacher Education Program. Completion of all program requirements, as defined by the Teacher Education Department. Successful student teaching experience. Successful completion and presentation of an electronic portfolio. Successful completion of Praxis I, Praxis II, and all ND licensure requirements.
The Registrar sends the application to the North Dakota Education Standards and Practices Board (ESPB) for the issuance of a teaching license.
Credit Hours Required: 131-132
Our Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education Program, Mada Maagarishtauo Awa Hee Aadsa Maa Aru Maa Giguckiigash (The ones that teach our children how everything on this earthworks), became accredited with the North Dakota Education Standards and Practices Board and the Higher Learning Commission in February 2011.
The Nueta Hidatsa Sahnish College was granted continued accreditation on July 12, 2006, by the Commission on Institutions of Higher Education of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools. General information The Nueta Hidatsa Sahnish College (NHSC) is tribally chartered by the Three Affiliated Tribes of the Fort Berthold Reservation headquarters at New Town, North Dakota. NHSC is tribally controlled by a Board of Directors, which consist of seven members appointed by the six segment council members and one tribal chairperson. Originally named Fort Berthold Community College, it was founded May 2, 1973, as the agency responsible for higher education on the Fort Berthold Reservation. On March 27, 2015, the Three Affiliated Tribes Business Council signed a resolution changing the name of the college to Nueta Hidatsa Sahnish College. The Three Affiliated Tribes endorsed the concept that a locally based higher education institution was needed to train Tribal members and to act as a positive influence in retaining the Tribal cultures. A steering committee was appointed to oversee the initial operations of the College. This committee was replaced by the selection of a Board of Directors in 1974. The first classes offered at NHSC were on an extension basis with coordinating accredited institutions. The articulation agreements made in the beginning were with University of Mary, Bismarck, ND; Minot State College, Minot, ND; and the University of North Dakota, Williston Center, Williston, ND. The College proceeded to develop long-range planning models. This planning resulted in the development of a framework for carrying out the mission and goals of the College, and also in the improvement of the educational and vocational services in the communities throughout the Reservation. Nueta Hidatsa Sahnish College was granted accreditation on February 12, 1988, through the North Central Association of Schools and Colleges. On July 12, 2006, Nueta Hidatsa Sahnish College was granted continued 10-year accreditation through The Higher Learning Commission (HLC) and will host its next reaffirmation of accreditation visit in 2017-18. The College is also one of thirty- four tribal colleges granted 1994 Land Grant Institution status. The Nueta Hidatsa Sahnish College is also a member of the American Indian Higher Education Consortium (AIHEC). On February 25, 2011, HLC’s Institutional Actions Council (IAC) voted to extend the College’s Accreditation to include Bachelor of Science Degrees in Elementary Education and Environmental Science, and the Bachelor of Arts in Native American Studies, making NHSC a Four-Year Institution.
