Course Information
Application, Tuition, and Costs
Apply early to the CMA Education Foundation (CMAEF). A $200 tuition fee
should accompany the application. A volunteer sponsor assigned to each teacher
pays additional tuition expenses of $500 per teacher. If a registrant must
cancel enrollment, the tuition amount minus $25 will be refunded.
No full or partial tuition refunds will be granted after the close of business
on the Thursday before the course begins. Acceptance is prioritized on
first-paid registrations basis. Registration is not guaranteed until after
receipt of the $200 tuition fee by the CMAEF.
Each student must provide his or her own steel-toed shoes or
boots or steel-toe shoe caps for visits to mines, mills, and other operations
associated with the course. Hard hats, hearing protection, and safety
glasses will be provided by the CMAEF. Transportation to and from classes and
meals/housing are the responsibility of individual attendees. All other
course costs, including tuition, transportation on field trips, and meals while
on most field trips, will be provided by the teacher sponsors. Detailed,
preliminary course information, including an agenda, are mailed to each
registrant following receipt of the tuition fee. Each teacher is required
to bring a set of the state and/or district teaching standards used for
preparing lesson plans for the subject (s) which he/she will use in the
classroom this fall.
Credit Policy and Grading
The Colorado School of Mines grants six semester hours of graduate-level,
recertification credit to those who have completed the course and attended all
classes and field trips in their entirety. Missed course sessions
cannot be made up by attending subsequent offerings of the same or related
classes or by completing additional assignments. Full credit hours are
granted only if all the full contact-hour requirements have been met, including
arriving on time and staying until dismissal.
The recertification credit hours are accepted by the State of
Colorado and are generally accepted by other states, but they cannot be applied
toward obtaining a degree at CSM. There are no special
projects or written assignments.
In consideration of the instructors and other course
registrations, DO NOT bring children of any age to class under any
circumstances. The individual's course grade is based upon the quality of
the lesson plan (s) and journal submitted.
Transcript Availability
Official transcripts for current course work will be available upon request
approximately two weeks after the instructor submits course grades to the CSM
Teacher Enhancement Office. Individual letters of completion are not
available.
Housing
Students enrolled in A Total Concept of the Mining Industry who require
accommodations must provide their own room and board in the Golden area for the
period June 22 to July 18, 2008. The Colorado School of Mines offers a
limited number of nominally priced, residence hall rooms to course attendees.
Room reservations in campus residence halls are not accepted until after
teachers have submitted a registration application with the $200 tuition fee.
Residence hall room reservations are accepted on a space-available basis, so
make your arrangements early.
For room rates/ information or to reserve a room, contact the
Teacher Enhancement Office at 303-273-3995. Students bringing children cannot be
accommodated in a residence hall and must make off-campus arrangements for
housing.
