EDUC 231 - Inquiry Based Teaching in the Schools

An opportunity to connect theory to pragmatic issues of teaching. Students observe and teach lessons in a local school setting with students, preferably at a high needs designated district. The course interrogates the following questions: (1) How do students learn? (2) How do teachers reach all students? (3) How does school environment inform teaching and learning? These questions are imbedded in genuine contexts of a school, which is itself working in state and federal educational bureaucracies. This class satisfies 10–30 hours of the 100 required school-based fieldwork for students seeking teacher certification.
