教育
学部简介
教育是一个跨学科的领域, 政治, 以及研究学校的社会文化方法. Students can examine teaching and 学习 in classrooms while also exploring broader societal issues reflected in 学校 such as the impact of 比赛 and culture on 学生’ 教育al experiences, the consequences of high-stakes testing on student mental health, 以及支持多语言学习者的项目. Our holistic and practical approach connects research, theory, and practice. We encourage 学生 to blend classwork with hands-on experience in local 学校 and communities.
Students can declare a major in 教育 studies or they may opt to declare one of our two minors: 教育 studies or teaching and 学习 studies. 通过韦尔斯利教师学者项目, 学生 can also attain Massachusetts teacher licensure in 二次 学校, 哪个州可以转让给其他州. 无论是在K-12学校工作, 高等教育, 儿童出版, 人工智能的创新, 或者教育政策, 我们的毕业生运用他们对教育研究的理解, 政策, 并实践到广泛的专业追求.
