EDUC 33000. Curriculum Methods and Assessment in Early and Elementary Education This course encourages students to examine the development and implementation of curriculum and instruction for early and elementary grade levels (PK-5). Course topics include the creation of measurable goals using existing student testing data as well as the collection, interpretation and reporting of new quantitative (and qualitative) assessment data to inform teaching strategies and curriculum planning using differentiated pedagogical models. Additionally classroom management, school climate, meeting the needs of diverse learners and collaborative/cooperative learning will also be addressed. A central focus of this course is a semester-long quantitative reasoning "impact on student learning" research project. A 50-hour supervised field placement in an early or elementary classroom setting is required. [QL] Prerequisite- EDUC-10000
