EDU 655 Instruction and Assessment Design
This course presents a dual focus on the philosophical and practical aspects of curriculum construction. Students will develop instruction that delivers understanding of content through varied processes in several context and conceptual frameworks. Understanding of course content is developed through a variety of readings, presentations, projects, and class discussion. Key topics include developing curriculum aligned to Missouri's Show-Me Standards, the historical bases for traditional subject-area curricula, alternative curriculum standards, philosophical bases of curriculum development, social and cultural issues, and future trends.
