What Will You Learn?
Despite the online nature of this graduate-level program, passionate faculty at Millersville University ensure that STEM Education students can:
- Integrate student-centered learning approaches to improve the quality of K-12 education and interaction with the larger community.
- Incorporate active project-based learning.
- Create varied and targeted assessments that effectively measure student learning aligned to content standards and leveraging emergent instructional models.
These marketable skills are fostered through professional core courses about research methods, educational psychology and public policy. Assessment, Curriculum and Teaching core courses complement those foundations by exploring current technology, instructional design, science curriculums, integrative education, engineering principles and mathematics in schools. Students complete their study with a faculty-advised capstone experience for teaching and learning.
