In ed psych, not strategies per se but strategies for ascertaining what was going on. Generalities, reward systems, etc.

In a class just on classroom management we went back to reward systems, classroom layouts, rule-setting and goal-setting. On subverting the students in a class and getting peer pressure to work against disruptors. On ways of managing time and organization.

There were required observation hours. A large portion of them were to be devoted to observing and commenting not just on teaching strategies but on classroom management strategies.

My program allowed internships. But the one I picked I picked because it had the optino of student teaching. It was a requirement, as far as I was concerned.
