EDA 5030 - Teaching and Learning: Curriculum (3 cr.)


This performance-based course will assist students in developing and demonstrating knowledge, understanding, and application of key principles of teaching, learning, instructional design, and curriculum. Leadership skills in developing a rich understanding of the learning processes; identifying and developing research-based instructional strategies; identifying curricular needs to meet state standards and student learning outcomes; understanding the use and role(s) of assessments; strategically using observation and feedback to improve teaching and learning; understanding the critical role of literacy as foundational to strong curriculum; understanding the design, delivery, and evaluation of professional learning, and other related topics will be explored and developed. From this study of critical knowledge and skills, students are expected to write reflections, curriculum action plans, faculty/department meeting agendas, letters to staff, and other documents that they will experience as full time administrators. With an additional focus on change management in a school setting, students will leave the course with an understanding of the critical work of school administrators. Discussions, school and classroom observations, case studies, readings, and guest presenters will serve as the primary instructional methods for achieving the course outcomes. Students will be responsible for developing a major independent project on Teaching and Learning Curriculum for their e-portfolio.

All course work is aligned with ISTE (International Society for Technology in Education), PSEL (Professional Standards in Educational Leadership), and AAQEP (Association for Advancing Quality in Educator Preparation) Standards.
