The 4 core courses, competencies, and experience that consist of 12 credit hours are designed to provide instruction in research-based best practice with embedded practical implementation of the practices. Participants will have a variety of assignments ranging from research and reflection of theory and best practice to practical applications in designing instructional objects and facilitating student discussions. Each course has essential field experience/job-embedded activities appropriate to developmental level. Some course meetings may be held at the DaVinci Science Center in Allentown, Pa.
