ED 380/380L - Methods in the Secondary Content Areas and Field Experience


This course supports the pre-service teacher in planning for teaching in the secondary school (Grades 5-8; 8-12). The course is interdisciplinary and addresses the skills necessary to become a “best practice” teacher, particularly through addressing principles and standards articulated by the Massachusetts Professional Standards for Teachers and the Coomon Core State Standards. Professional responsibilities, classroom learning environments, planning instruction, assessing achievement, and teaching for meaningful learning for all students are among the areas addressed. Research and theory are connected to applied practice through a field experience throughout the semester. Must be registered for the course and field experience sections.
