EDUC 502 - Current Issues in Education

Hours: 3
The teaching profession has a major influence on the well being of our society. As professional teachers, we must play an active role in shaping and influencing those issues and concerns which confront our American educational system. This course will not only explore the issues facing American education but encourage students to develop opinions and beliefs about educating our children and youth for the present as well as for the future. Students will identify issues of interest to them as well as examine issues beyond their experience. They will be challenged to examine these issues in an objective manner, share their findings with their classmates, and translate their research into defensible arguments which will be debated in class.

Notes:
MAT Only.
