Curriculum, Instruction, and Assessment

Catalog description

This course is designed for students in the elementary/secondary education K – 12 programs. It is a general methods course for assessment, curriculum design, development and methods of instruction. This course focuses on the "what to teach", "how to teach", and “planning the context for teaching and learning” with the goal of providing an integrated approach in instruction. Such an integrated approach involves interventions (accommodations and modifications) in the design of instruction to teach all learners.

The course presents comprehensive and balanced coverage of all aspects of assessment relevant to classroom teachers. Prerequisite(s): ED 201 .
