ELE 511 & ECH 502 Elementary Workshops Summer 2009

This course is designed to allow graduate candidates the opportunity to study or work on topics or projects of collective concern. This course represents a performance-based approach to teacher education designed to enable the advanced candidate to become an educational service professional with knowledge, skills, and dispositions required by institutional, state, regional, and national standards. Through a constructivist design, learning will be facilitated by the advanced candidate’s participation in activities that will involve the intellect as well as dispositions. Creativity in learning will be facilitated by collaboration and feedback that should result in continual reflection and self-assessment. The ultimate outcome of this course is the further development of a skilled, highly proficient, advanced-level educational practitioner.
