EDUC 641 - Teaching as Inquiry and Advocacy

3 credits
Teaching encompasses a cyclical process of reflective practice, where educators pose questions, collect data, and make informed decisions about instruction.  Formalizing this process in sustained inquiry allows educators to become advocates, speaking on behalf of their students to effect change locally and more globally. The purpose of this course is to explore the process of practitioner inquiry and the role of teachers as advocates. The course will provide educators with tools of inquiry and advocacy and the guidance to develop a proposal for completion of the master’s thesis.  Successful completion of this course is required to continue to the master’s thesis. Prerequisite:  EDUC 640 - Proseminar in Education Theory and Practice   Course Offering : Every third semester (fall/spring)
