Learning and Accomplished Practice

Offers a practice-mediated survey of contemporary educational theory of human learning and accomplished teaching. Students develop a working understanding of teaching and learning as they occur in different types of schools and community settings. Investigates two kinds of theories: theories learning and cognition -- how humans learn, acquire knowledge, and make sense of their experience; and theories of teaching or pedagogy -- how best to teach for understanding and learning achievement. Students synthesize their developing understanding through their instructional activity with children in field placements. Includes a field placement and performance assessment to complete the course satisfactorily. Graduate students are required to demonstrate advanced levels of study and research.
