In the EDUC 6260 and EDUC 6265 seminars, teacher candidates apply in school contexts what they’ve learned in EDUC 6250 and 6255 about students, curriculum, instruction, and assessment, including critical thinking, developmentally appropriate instruction, differentiated instruction, universal design for learning, and large-scale testing and bias. Teacher candidates practice a cycle of planning, instruction, assessment, and reflection to ensure that they grow in their effectiveness in impacting the learning of all of their students. Particular attention will be paid to culturally responsible pedagogy and professionalism.
