Collaborative Learning

Catalog description

Collaborative Learning is necessary for a positive agency of change. The EDSP 5290 will provide a way of working together to affect the practices of schooling. This model is based on the underlying assumption that improved learning environments for students are more likely with continuous, job-embedded conversations among educators. Through this course, the graduate student will engage in on-going collaborative discussions around social-emotional challenges and how they relate to academic barriers through in-depth investigation of establishing and maintaining a continuous improvement cycle of inquiry, action research, planning, implementation, reflection, and evaluation to address classroom challenges as they occur.
