The purpose of this course is to introduce future teachers to elementary social studies curriculum and instructional methods. Candidates will review the social studies curriculum as it relates to learning and development, differences in learning styles, critical thinking, problem solving and performance skills, active learning and motivation, inquiry, collaboration and supportive classroom interaction, instructional planning, assessment, reflection and professional growth, and professional leadership (based on pedagogical standards identified by the National Council for the Social Studies). Field experience is required.

A brief reminder that your Phase 3 of the Social Studies Unit Plan is due next week Tuesday, March 27. If you have ANY questions, be sure to contact me before it is due.

As I mentioned on the EDU 360 blog, we will be transitioning to using that blog more for the science methods focus for the remainder of the semester.
