For the practicum component of the course, students will obtain first-hand knowledge with planning, observing, and implementing inquiry-based lessons for students at the School District of Philadelphia, ranging from the elementary through middle grades. Lesson plan development will focus on Pennsylvania's Common Core State Standards, Next Generation Science Standards and NTCM, Standards for Mathematical Practices, as well as Engineering Design, to ensure that learners are engaged in higher-order thinking skills that will strengthen and enrich their conceptual and procedural understanding of math and science.
