Subject:

Description:

Examination of cultural, ethnic, racial, linguistic, gender, family structure, and individual diversity in the classroom, and the root causes of current classroom and school problems. The course includes an introduction to educational ethnography and provides a basis for understanding the relationship of educational research and classroom teaching in terms of culture, teaching, and learning. Alternative methods and materials integrating social studies with other elementary school subjects are examined and evaluated; teacher candidates learn how to develop their own program of study in the social sciences. Students use techniques of ethnographic methods to observe and analyze classrooms during the observational field placement of the class (30 hours) during the last half of the semester. Grade only.
