East Lansing Cohort Summer 2011
Participants come together for two weeks of face-to-face on-campus in East Lansing and then meet online for four weeks. Students then reconvene on campus for presentations of the DreamIT proposal and portfolios.
This integrated seminar includes three courses: CEP800, CEP815 & CEP822
CEP 800: Learning in school and other settings
Learning as active, socially-mediated construction of knowledge in school, home, community, and work settings. What is learned, how it is taught and learned, and what learners bring to the setting.
CEP 815: Technology and Leadership
In this course, we examine the complex charge of being responsible for managing relationships between technology, teaching and learning. Professional development strategies, project management, planning, evaluation, relationship building, along with the ethical and social implications of technology integration will be examined.
CEP 822: Approaches to Ed Research
Alternative methods of educational research. Identifying researchable problems in education and developing a research proposal. Applications of descriptive and inferential statistics for analyzing and critiquing published studies.
* Because I took CEP 800 in a previous term, I completed CEP 815, CEP 822, and CEP 890 (substitute for CEP 807) which is an independent study capstone experience.
