EDUC 355 Human Relations in Education
This course provides opportunities for students to examine and develop their own identities, beliefs, values, and teaching philosophies through the exploration of multicultural education and social justice teaching. Preservice teachers will be better equipped to see students clearly, build relationships, and teach them well. Grounded in the philosophy of the Circle of Courage and Ubuntu, a South African term meaning “I am because we are,” students will realize their place in the classroom and the world. This course explores the major themes of diversity, equity, inclusion, culture, bias, and social justice. Course includes a field experience of approximately 8 hours.
