ED 110 Teaching for Learning

(3 credits)
This course is designed about six key themes: 1) How to create a caring learning community, 2) The role of personal histories in learning and teaching journeys, 3) The importance of listening thoughtfully to children and youth, 4) Focusing on thinking dispositions and their connection to learning, 5) The importance of creating cultures of thinking in learning environments, and 6) Unpacking the idea of schools as contested terrain.

Throughout the semester we will think deeply about how listening, observing, and thinking are at the heart of creating vibrant learning environments.
