- giantg2 5y agoInteresting. Do you happen to know which ones or have an example?
- halfnormalform 5y agoTeacher training and Masters Degrees both involve a roughly-similar amount of coursework. I think someone once used it as an analogy and it stuck too well.
- giantg2 5y agoI think that's really only true if you do it separately after receiving a bachelor degree (adds 1-2 years). If done from the start, they have separate courses for educators that satisfy both the subject and teaching requirements/strategies for that material. Sort of like how you can take the business version or math version of stats - they cover similar material but from different angles (both have a math prefix but any math major will tell you the business one is less rigorous).
