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
"I think the hardest aspect of teaching is making certain to meet the needs of every student. As a teacher, you are responsible for the education of the students. Parents have placed their trust into your hands. How does a teacher give a lesson to twenty-one different students sitting in one classroom? How does a teacher make certain that each student is learning?"
