EDUC 380 - Strategies for Planning Curriculum and Assessment


(3 hours) Prerequisites: Admission to the Teacher Education Program and completion of EDUC 319 and EDUC 321 with a grade of ‘C’ or better. Corequisites: EDUC 412, 413, and 421. Should be taken the semester prior to clinical practice. This course prepares teachers to analyze, design, and use both traditional and authentic assessments in the elementary or secondary grade classroom. The ADEPT instrument for teacher evaluation is presented in the course, and candidates develop long- and short-range plans based on this model. Candidates are given the opportunity to match content, objectives, and teaching behaviors with appropriate curriculum and assessment. Candidates will also select, interpret, and integrate assessment tools that are developmentally appropriate and which meet the needs of diverse student populations. During a practicum experience, candidates will observe student groups that will be used to develop a long-range plan for directed teaching. A 10-hour practicum is required. Students are responsible for arranging their own transportation to designated or assigned sites. This course cannot be challenged. Note: Offered: Fall.
