Credits: 3

This course presents students with knowledge on concepts in education (K-6) and approaches to the teaching profession for inclusive classrooms. Students will have an opportunity to explore the profession and what it entails through fieldwork. Emphasis is placed on students developing knowledge of social justice and the multicultural context in which education occurs in the U.S by examining the social, cultural, and political origins of contemporary schooling with a focus on schools as social institutions. Finally, the epicenter of this course is the role of teachers as both actor and subjects of educational reform movements. Field work may be required in this course.
