Overview
Education Foundations (EDFD) offers graduate courses in the psychological, social, and philosophical foundations of education. These courses make up the professional core of many education programs in the college of education. Through these courses, we help students understand the role and purpose of public education in a democratic society, contemporary theories of human learning and development and their implications for classroom instruction, the construction and interpretation of teacher-generated and standardized assessments, the contexts from which students come, in which they learn, and to which they return, and to become critical consumers of educational research. Coursework is also available that allows candidates to earn Graduate Certificates in Business Training and Development and Multicultural Education, as well as, an Educational Doctorate in Education.
