Purpose of this Course:

The purpose of this course is to train candidates to synthesize their content area knowledge with the pedagogical practices articulated within the California Frameworks for Physical Education (PE) and the Visual and Performing Arts (VAPA). This course is a prerequisite course for all other method courses and includes a fieldwork/teacher aiding component to be completed in an approved local elementary school. Students in this course will acquire foundational skills related to integrating Physical Education and Visual and Performing Arts instruction and assessment into core curriculum units.

Course Description:

EDU 543 is a 2 unit introductory methods course for students seeking a career in education. This course is a study of the Visual and Performing Arts and the Physical Education California Frameworks. Integrating Visual/Performing Arts and Physical Education into the Elementary Classroom will focus on understanding California’s goals for teaching elementary age students non-core curriculum content. This course will focus on appropriate instructional and assessment goals. This course will also include strategies for teaching non-core content in settings heavily impacted by state assessments and pacing guides. Eight fieldwork hours which include three hours of observation and one hour of teacher aiding in both content areas are required.

Course Work Load Expectations: While the level of work required to "master" the material will vary from individual to individual, the expectation of a "Master degree" is that a person has achieved a level of expertise and authority in an area of study and is skilled in handling knowledge. This expectation is communicated by the WASC guideline of three hours of independent study for every hour of instruction for one graduate credit (WASC, 2001, p. 121). That means that you should expect approximately 9 hours of study and preparation time per week for this course. Please pace yourself accordingly in preparing for this course.
