Preparing to teach all children...
This program prepares teachers to teach all children, particularly in urban contexts. The course of study emphasizes curriculum development for heterogeneous classrooms, critical multiculturalism, teaching for equity and social justice, and an inquiry approach to teaching and learning. Because the program prepares teachers for inclusive classrooms, it is possible to add on an additional 12 points in Critical Special Education and be recommended for the additional certification: Teaching Students with Disabilities. (See next section for details)
Degrees Offered:
ELEMENTARY INCLUSIVE EDUCATION-INITIAL CERTIFICATION (ELEM-INIT)
Master of Arts (M.A.)

What our students are saying
"Even though I am learning the difficulties of being a teacher, I am also gaining a deeper appreciation of the joys involved in teaching. There is nobody more courageous than a child that raises his hand to answer a question even though he is not certain if he is correct. When he gives an incorrect answer, he is not discouraged. He does not stop raising his hand because he did not give the right answer. Instead, he is the first student to raise his hand to give the answer for the next question."
