UEDU 788 - Culturally Responsive Instruction

3 Credits
Candidates will learn a new way of viewing teaching that is grounded in an understanding of the role of culture and language in learning. Candidates in this course will compare the best practices outlined in multiple cultural, linguistically responsive frameworks, eventually adopting one of the proposed frameworks or creating their own to be implemented in their work context. Candidates will also explore relevant coaching and change management strategies and apply them as they learn about their students’ family makeup, immigration history, favorite activities, concerns, and strengths.
