Enacting Leadership for Science

Catalog description

Students will more deeply study and examine leadership in science. The goal of this integrated “non-module” is to provide you opportunities to explore leadership “problems of practice” related to science curriculum and instruction in your organization or for those you serve. Rather than participating in a traditional course, you will join a working group focused on a contemporary, practical challenge related to science that education leaders must address. Your working group will develop a plan to address the challenge, implement the plan, and will then share with the rest of the cohort and community the product of your research and analysis. In the style of problem-based learning, you will be introduced to key readings and concepts in science education through taking on the activities of the working group.
