Candidates are assigned an advisor who provides them with a Guidelines and Procedures Handbook and meets with them formally each semester to assess progress on his or her Graduate project. The small size of the M.Ed. Summer sessions will feature daytime classes while courses offered during the school year will be taught evenings. The M.Ed. program is designed in the context of the Department s Conceptual Framework focusing particularly on the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards. Teachers know the subjects they teach and how to teach those subjects to students.
Teachers are responsible for managing and monitoring student learning.
Teachers think systematically about their practice and learn from experience. Teachers are members of learning communities. Faculty members of the Education Department have release time to work with M.Ed. The National Boards for Professional Teaching Standards have been contacted and asked for their input and assistance in this endeavor.
