Anyone with a heartbeat could get a degree in education. The state boards, now Praxis tests, are ridiculously easy. Even in grad school, the classes are so easy, it’s pathetic. I graduated from Penn State with a different major then went to grad school, 2 master degrees later and the one in education was a breeze. A few years ago I had to take the Praxis tests to be certified in NJ and barely studied, after 20 years, yet still aced them. And, so many fail the praxis. Most ed majors are the bottom of the barrel and that’s a fact.
