CNS 710 - CES Instructional Theories and Pedagogy Credits: 3

This course examines teaching, learning, curriculum, and how individuals develop and learn, as well as how organizational, social, and cultural contexts shape learning. Students are asked to draw from their own personal and professional experiences in education, work environments, and learning in general, and to use these experiences as a framework for exploring and testing current theories, models, the empirical literature, and present practices. Teaching-learning theories, models of development, and best practices will be explored, and roles and responsibilities will be clarified regarding teaching, supervising, facilitating, and assessing overall professional development within counselors and other professionals.
