TE 891: Specific Topics in Teaching Curriculum and Schooling
Dr. S. Weiland
The TE 891 Class dealt with topics that teachers and administrators might encounter, not only in the classroom, but also at the district level. Much of the time was spent discussing with classmates how to deal with specific topics.
One assignment that was expected of students in the class was to write a six to ten page paper exploring different aspects of the workings of the administration and faculty in the school setting.
Examples of work pending, waiting on contact with professor.

TE 846: Accommodating Differences in Literacy Learners
N. Martin
The TE 846 class focused on how students learn differently, and how there are certain factors that can influence the reading and writing ability of the child.
During the course, students were required to interact with a student, in a school setting, and determine the literacy abilities of that student. This was done by using particular literacy assessments. The graduate student was also expected to do a reading analyses, and at the end of the study, students had to write a fifteen to twenty page case study of the student.
Examples of work are pending based on contact with professor.
