MS_ED 451 Sec 20		Topics in Teaching and Learning: Using Teacher and Student Work to Study Teaching and Learning
Teach Ed 351		Cognitive Foundations of Learning How does a student make sense of words on a page? How does mathematical knowledge grow? How do students' ideas about history and science change over time? This class will engage students with cognitive perspectives on learning that will help illuminate answers to questions like these. Each class will focus on a different cognitive perspective, such as the transfer of knowledge from one setting to another, conceptual change, and the difference between expert and novice knowledge. While issues of cognition can seem abstract and theoretical at times, this course will guide students through practical application of cognitive theory in different content areas for student learning.
