The program is designed to address the needs of educators as life long learners in a productive learning climate. The professional education core at the graduate level is grounded in the belief that all teaching must be personalized and reflective. This program is comprised of courses that are connected in many ways. These connections are described and investigated explicitly in each appropriate course. The commonalties among different disciplines are consistently presented and then applied and evaluated by students.
Students complete both written and oral assignments in all graduate education courses.
