ED 1340 - Introduction to Education

(3)
Introduces students to a possible career in education. Students observe a K-12 classroom in a diverse setting, reflect on this field observation, and then synthesize it with course readings and class discussions. On-campus sessions develop students’ ability to analyze and place these experiences into the broader cultural context that is the 21st-century classroom. Students will examine trauma-informed teaching practices, culturally-relevant pedagogy, and socioeconomic effects on student populations. This course requires non-credit hour field placement experience.
