EDUC 312 - Teach Learn Process 4 Social Studies

This class is the last class in the four-course Teaching/Learning Process series that spans the Preliminary Credential program. Taught after the candidate has spent an entire academic year working in a clinical setting (either as a resident or intern), this class allows the candidate to explore advanced discipline-specific methodology in their credential area in light of CGU’s mission for academic excellence for all students. This course will help each candidate identify his/her own professional preferences, strengths and weaknesses and locate resources to support their professional development and ground their craft in a larger discussion of the nature of teaching Social Studies. Candidates will experience advance pedagogical strategies and the research behind each to support their usage in the classroom. This class is specifically designed for candidates working towards their Preliminary single-subject credential in Social Studies. In this course, candidates will learn how to incorporate critical social justice dispositions and culturally sustaining practices into their teaching.
