| Definition |
| An indication of a teaching field within which an individual is authorized to teach by an active teaching credential. In a departmentalized organization, a teaching field is a major subdivision of the educational program such as language arts, mathematics, music, distributive education, or physical education. In a non-departmentalized situation or in a self-contained classroom, a general teaching level such as elementary or secondary may be the most accurate designation of a teaching field. |
