Graduate Certificate in Curriculum and Pedagogy for Social Justice (Online)
About the Program
The Curriculum and Pedagogy for Social Justice Certificate consists of 18 hours, six graduate level education courses, designed to provide educators with the theoretical foundations, historical knowledge, practical experience, and supportive infrastructure needed to become reflective practitioners who successfully integrate social justice education into their classrooms. The graduate certificate can be completed as a stand-alone program or along with any of the Master’s degrees offered in the College of Education. An underlying assumption of this graduate certificate is the educators who engage in social education will be able to identify dehumanizing sociopolitical conditions that undermine good teaching and academic achievement and will actively engage in pedagogical practices to alter those conditions to educate all students to reach their highest potential.
