EDL 7200:Leading Curriculum, Instruction and Assessment

3 Class Hours 0 Laboratory Hours 3 Credit Hours
Prerequisite: Admission to the M.Ed. program or permission of the instructor.
In this course, future educational leaders develop the understanding and skills necessary to lead curriculum and instructional practices that will lead to the academic success of all P-12 students. Students utilize theory and research related to how children and adolescents learn (Bransford, 2000) and study best instructional practices for all students including those with learning disabilities and those who come from linguistically and culturally diverse backgrounds. Models of curriculum development and design, and rationales/problems related to standards-based instruction are also studied (Wiggins & McTighe, 2000, 2002). Students plan, develop, and implement effective instructional programs; align instruction vertically and horizontally with state and district curriculum standards; monitor and evaluate the implementation of curriculum standards, both individually and systemically; and effectively improve curriculum and instruction practices.
