EDUC500-01 Child Development 3 Pollock, Wendy Sharon Tuesdays 05:15-09:00PM, Thursdays 05:15-09:00PM Cancelled
In this course we will examine the interactions among the cognitive, social, emotional, linguistic, and physical development of children from infancy into adolescence. We will pay close attention to children as makers of meaning in the contexts of their development, including family, school, socioeconomic class, and culture. Through reading classic and current literature, we will attend to some of the larger questions about development, such as the relationship between nature and nurture, the role of developmental theory, and the tension between the search for developmental universals and the reality of individual differences. The goal is to make developmental theory vibrant and meaningful so that the generalized theoretical child comes to enhance and inform how one understands individual children.
EDUC505-01 Language Acquisition and Learning in a Linguistically Diverse Society 2 Costa, Luisa Mondays 05:15-08:45PM, Wednesdays 05:15-08:45PM 05/13/2019, 05/15/2019, 05/20/2019, 05/22/2019, 05/29/2019, 06/03/2019, 06/05/2019, 06/10/2019
Based on the belief that language is an essential foundation for learning, this course addresses the typical processes of language acquisition in mono- and multilingual learners. Participants will examine theories of language acquisition and the role that caregivers and educators play in the development of language. In addition, participants will analyze historical, political, educational, social, and emotional factors that influence the socially constructed hierarchies of language varieties. A significant part of the course will be devoted to students who learn English as an additional language. Participants will learn how to use assessment of mono- and multilingual learners to identify appropriate instructional practices for social and academic language use in a range of educational settings. Course participants will also learn about ways of collaborating with families, colleagues, specialists, administrators, and interpreters.
EDUC530-01 Foundations of Modern Education 3 Jaffe, Nina Tuesdays 05:15-09:00PM, Thursdays 05:15-09:00PM
This course examines the historical, philosophical, and cultural roots of contemporary education, including Bank Street’s progressive history and philosophy, the contributions of major educational leaders, and current practices and innovations in education. Participants will analyze how critical issues in the field affect their practice with children and families in schools and communities. The course will explore ways in which education as an avenue for individual advancement and social justice has been defined, advocated for, enacted, and is still being negotiated in the U.S. The course will attend to what has been achieved as well as challenges that remain in creating educational spaces that affirm children’s and families’ race, social class, immigration status, language, gender, and ability, among other identity domains. Participants will apply their understandings to think about their role in bringing about desired, warranted changes in order to create more inclusive and democratic educational environments.
EDUC535-01 Science for Teachers (Grades N – 6) 2 Chu, Stan Tuesdays 04:45-08:15PM, Thursdays 04:45-08:15PM 05/14/2019, 05/16/2019, 05/21/2019, 05/23/2019, 05/28/2019, 05/30/2019, 06/04/2019, 06/06/2019
Science for Teachers focuses on developing a science way of thinking and doing in PreK-6th grade classrooms. Each session deepens an understanding that doing science requires direct sensory encounters with the physical world. By experiencing first-hand investigations of physical and biological materials and related phenomena, participants create a range of representations that can uncover existing patterns and concepts. Discussions, readings, and reflective writings deepen and broaden work done with physical materials. Participants will reflect on their own learning as they work to construct meaningful science experiences that respond to the developmental levels of their students and affirm students’ cultural, linguistic, and learning diversity. The course explores evidence-based ways of making sense of the world that support the integration of science inquiry across the curriculum.
EDUC536-01 Foundations: The Influence of Culture and Politics on Literacy Theory and Practice 2 Einbender, Lynne Mondays 05:15-08:45PM, Wednesdays 05:15-08:45PM 05/13/2019, 05/15/2019, 05/20/2019, 05/22/2019, 05/29/2019, 06/03/2019, 06/05/2019, 06/12/2019
This course examines the ways in which historical, philosophical, cultural, and political trends have impacted research and pedagogy in the field of literacy (reading, writing, and language arts). Students explore how literacy theory and practice have been influenced by changing visions of teaching and learning; standards and assessment; the roles of special education and the education of English Language Learners; the appropriate nature of home, school, and community relationships; and the needs of the workforce. Students will be expected to use various forms of media and transitional research to deepen their understanding of these issues and become critical readers of research studies and popular reports.
The class will not meet on 6/5.
EDUC540-01 Mathematics for Teachers in Diverse and Inclusive Educational Settings (Grades N – 6) 2 Spruill, Helen Thursdays 07:00-09:00PM
This course provides participants with an overview of mathematics learning for children grades N-6. Participants deepen their own mathematical knowledge while furthering their understanding of effective mathematics instruction. In each session, participants do math together and use these experiences to investigate the development of mathematical thinking and to reflect on their own learning. Participants explore the essential elements of a constructivist mathematics classroom in which collaboration is core to building concepts and skills. Designing a classroom where deep mathematical understanding is the primary goal requires explorations of attitudes and beliefs as well as practices and expectations. This course addresses the moral imperative that all students are capable of learning math. It focuses on creating inclusive environments for learners with developmental variations. The course also focuses on creating mathematical experiences that support students for whom English is a new language. Participants discuss classroom management strategies for grouping and individualizing instruction.
EDUC563-01 The Teaching of Reading, Writing, and Language Arts in the Primary Grades 3 Foster, Xiania G. Tuesdays 05:15-07:15PM, Thursdays 05:15-07:15PM Dates: 5/14 - 7/18

Participants develop criteria for selecting literature for children, considering factors including but not limited to child development, aesthetics, language, and culture, as well as children’s interests and curiosities. Through active engagement with books, artifacts, and ideas, participants gain an understanding of the role of literature in language development in children’s primary and new languages. Participants will examine ways to use literature from a wide range of genres and perspectives for reading aloud, honoring and stimulating children’s storytelling, and for deepening learning across content areas.

This course introduces block building and dramatic play as experiences that are central to learning in the early child-hood curriculum. We will explore the ways block building supports children’s physical, social, emotional, and cognitive development. Participants will think about how children explore the physical properties of blocks, explore blocks to represent and learn about the world around them, and create symbolic stories related to their structures. Participants will build with blocks and consider questions related to setting up a block area, developmental expectations, and the role of blocks in curriculum planning, as well as gender and inclusion considerations.

This course will explore autism spectrum disorder (ASD) from historical, cultural, political, and developmental lenses. It will support graduate students in thinking deeply and from multiple perspectives about the evolution of our understandings about and interventions with the broad range of characteristics of learning and development attributed to people with ASD. This course considers the significance of home and/or school as the primary sources of educational intervention and direct services for children with ASD. Participants will consider the importance of providing young children with ASD with an educational program that is responsive to each child’s unique pattern of relative strengths and vulnerabilities, and will learn ways to partner in this work with a diverse range of families.  Participants will explore the use of assistive technology as a tool for supporting student learning, communication, and independence.
