EDUCATIONAL LEADERSHIP
The Master of Education degree in Leadership for Teaching
and Learning (Educational Leadership) is designed to prepare teachers for
roles in basic education as principals, department heads, curriculum directors,
supervisors and other leadership positions. The program philosophy is rooted
in the literature demonstrating the effectiveness of leaders who facilitate
responsible, responsive change through cooperative action. Furthermore,
the program utilizes the strengths of cohort groups of students, portfolio
assessment, an internship, mentors, technology and case studies. Community
relations, respect of the influences of race, class, gender and ethnicity
in education, and the liberal arts as a source of knowledge and perspective
are acknowledged in the program curriculum.
