EDE 663 - Elementary Methods: Science/ Social Studies/Arts

3 credit(s)
This course combines content-specific, discipline-based methodology for science, social studies, and the arts at the elementary level with an interdisciplinary/ integrative framework. State and national curricular benchmarks will be reviewed in each of the three domains for the lower- and upper-elementary school levels. Specific materials, resources, and technological supports will be examined per discipline, along with the particulars of planning, assessment, and management techniques for all students. Within the context of overarching essential questions, cross-curricular applications will be made through unit planning that incorporates all three of the domains. It is a main goal of this course that students will internalize the connections between subjects and will understand and reflect on the richness of this interaction. It is also intended to serve as a model for similar integration across other areas of the elementary curriculum.
Prerequisite(s): EDE 662.
