The teacher preparation program in elementary education (grades 1 through 6) prepares beginning teachers to become highly knowledgeable about subject matter and pedagogy and critically reflective, responsive, passionate, compassionate educators who are committed to meeting the learning needs of all children with diverse, cultural, socioeconomic, and linguistic backgrounds.
The BSED in Elementary Education (K-6) is coordinated by the Department of Literacy, Elementary, and Early Childhood Education in the Central School of Education.
Students with questions about history courses within the Elementary Education program should contact the Department of History advisor, Dr. Mary Ann Mahony.
