Teacher Education and Learning Outcomes

Learning Outcomes means beyond earning a degree, students must attain knowledge, skills, and abilities.

Upon completion of the BA in Education degree program, students will be able to:

• Use enduring content and pedagogical knowledge to inform their teaching (know content, critically evaluate literature on effective practice).
• Develop relevant, rigorous, and developmentally appropriate curricula (critically evaluate and apply literature on development, learning).
• Modify curriculum and instruction based on the individual needs of their students (address diversity in teaching/learning).
• Use assessment of their students’ learning and their own teaching to inform future planning and teaching (reflect on P-12 student learning outcome data, problem solve, critically evaluate literature on effective practice for use in classroom).
• Attend to the social and civic development of their students.
• Work respectfully & collaboratively with colleagues & community to ensure quality instructional programs & stewardship of public schools.
