EPSE 308: Development, Learning and Culture in the Classroom
EPSE 308 Sessional Qualifications:
Preference is given to candidates who have a strong understanding and experience teaching in the areas of development, learning, and culture. Also, candidates should have a broad overview of theories about how children develop, learn, and grow in diverse society and how an understanding of development and diversity can inform educational practice. As well, experience teaching in K-12 schools is helpful, but not required. Successful student applicants must have the approval of their research supervisor (based on making satisfactory progress in the program). Non-students with the appropriate qualifications are also welcome to apply.
Specific Course Information and Requirements:
EPSE 308 is for Elementary Teacher Candidates and takes place from September – December. These sections are taught in a seminar format only on Wednesday afternoons. The course runs as a community of practice and thus instructors, along with the course coordinator, will contribute to the content and organization of the course. There will be a common syllabus for all sections and instructors will be highly supported in their planning and teaching during this term. Instructors for these sections will be teaching the full content of the course in their seminar sections.
All graduate students in masters or doctoral programs meeting the general qualifications are welcome to apply for these sections.
