CI 5103 - Culture, Schools, & Communities: Human Relations II (1 Cr.)

Course description

This course provides teacher candidates with the knowledge and skills to address social and cultural
dimensions of education. The course then explores community partnerships that support student
learning, and how teachers may navigate the social and political environment of schools and school
districts to be effective advocates for their students. The course examines three themes that are
interwoven throughout: professionalism, teacher leadership, and adaptive expertise. In sum, the course
encourages teacher candidates to imagine both the realities and possibilities of schooling in the
contemporary world.

Learning experiences are made up of class meetings involving speakers, simulations, and multi‐media
presentations; readings; small group discussions, activities, exercises and projects.
