| (3 cr.) This course helps teacher-leaders understand the
cycles of inquiry--a systematic approach to
teaching and learning that includes: knowing
content standards, diagnosing student needs,
setting and working toward long- and short-term
learning goals, backward planning from standards
and assessments, investing students in their
goals, teaching effectively and continuously
analyzing data to ensure learning goals are being
met. This course provides teacher-leaders with
training and experience through complete cycles of
inquiry within the literacy classroom to further
develop their skills as master teachers. Course
assignments support each candidate as a reflective
practitioner and build capacity for
teacher-leaders to make a difference for every
learner.
