EDU 6710 - Providing Leadership in Managing Curriculum, Instruction, and Assessment

3 cr

This course will insure that participants will learn that the development and design of curriculum are tools to ensure that we can define what students need to know and be able to do. Participants will also learn about researched-based instructional practices and the assessment of student learning. Curriculum, instruction, and assessment are interrelated factors in the teaching and learning process. Together, they represent a cycle with assessment informing both the instruction and the curriculum components. To implement this cycle effectively, participants will acquire knowledge about systemic change and the factors that must be present to allow change to happen and be sustained over time.
