EDU 5120 - Adolescent Development for Education Professionals (3 cr.)


Survey of major psychological, socio-cultural development theories and issues for adolescence, with an emphasis on application to the 7-12 learning environment. This course works to explore the complexity of identity, development, and growth for diverse students. Pedagogies and adolescent growth will be explored, including working with learners based on their multiple identities such as race, class, gender, ability, sexuality and linguistic background. Self-reflection for preservice teachers will be an important facet, to locate their own identities and the influence of these on teaching. This course meets SED mandates for the completion of the child abuse/neglect prevention (CA), Dignity for All Students Act (DASA), substance abuse awareness, and school violence prevention (SAVE).
