About Cal TeachComprising nine campuses, the University of California’s Cal Teach program provides a sequence of undergraduate courses and field experiences in K-12 schools to introduce students to mathematics and science teaching. ED 128 is a Cal Teach course that complements students’ work in their majors, providing both the deep subject matter knowledge and the strong pedagogical skills needed to increase equity and access to STEM for all California’s diverse students.
The initiative began in response to both state and national concerns about the critical shortage of highly qualified elementary and secondary teachers. The Cal Teach program at UCSB offers undergraduate courses in mathematics, science, engineering, and climate justice education at the elementary and secondary levels, supporting approximately 200 undergraduate students per year, mainly from the STEM fields. Many of these students pursue a minor in science and mathematics education.
