Bilingual Education M.Ed.
|
|
The M.Ed. in Bilingual Education (Inclusive Education M.Ed. with a specialization in Bilingual Education) program prepares teachers to be leaders and critical thinkers. Schools today are complex and diverse communities - reflecting a landscape rich with individual differences. Teachers in our program are prepared using a unique combination of theoretical and practical experiences. This approach ensures their ability to create and lead equitable spaces where difference is valued while at the same time preparing them for the realities and challenges of the classroom and the profession.
In this program, students will:
- Explore the history, theory and equity of bilingual and dual language education, focusing on political, legal and cultural perspectives.
- Learn about inclusive instructional design with a focus on culturally responsive practices for bilingual classrooms.
- Study principles of language acquisition, bilingual literacy and strategies to support oral and written language development in bilingual settings.
- Delve into effective, equitable assessment practices for multilingual learners, addressing cultural and linguistic differences in assessment.
All students take five core inclusive education courses as well as the coursework for their licensure. For the bilingual education endorsement, courses prepare educators to create and lead an inclusive classroom environment for bilingual learners. This program can be completed fully online or with a mix of in-person and online courses.
Master’s of Education students are required to complete 30 credits.
