Developmental Planning I: Teaching & Planning

Catalog description

Two essential questions guide the course. Through what processes and mechanisms do the young (students) become more knowledgeable? How can the old (teachers) most effectively select and order learning experiences to best enable the young to become knowledgeable? It is for this reason that our emphasis of study is on the social, cultural and political contexts within which teaching and learning occur, and on mindfulness as both a prerequisite for teaching and goal for learning.
