ED 800 Concepts in Educational Inquiry CEP 805 Learning Math with Technology |
Description Concepts of inquiry in education was a comprehensive course that took me through many elements of both theory and practice in regards to teaching, learning, administration, and leadership. I learned everything from philosophical to psychological and biological to biographical, but the most benefitial and interesting to me was the historical aspect of education and how it might be influencing my teaching as well as my students' learning. After looking at the psychological and mathematical perspectives on learning mathematics, this course gave me the opportunity to research online resources for math learning and create my own online resource library. It also provided multiple opportunities to do open-ended problem solving and analyze online resources. |

EAD 866 Teaching in Postsecondary Education ED 870 Capstone Seminar |
Title This course focused on the philosophies and beliefs for quality teaching at a postsecondary level. After learning the theory, we were given the opportunity to apply it through multiple tangible applications to our current or desired teaching positions. One of them was to create a syllabus as a first step of creating a new course. This course provided culminating organization and reflection of both the learning and experiences throughout the online masters program. The course then culminates with the creation and exhibition of a web-based, electronic portfolio. |
