Through teaching and outreach, the department strives to promote the values, knowledge, and skills needed to improve education in the state and across the region, and, through the scholarly activities of its faculty and students, to advance a national research agenda. Leadership in all areas requires an understanding of curricular, instructional, supervisory, and administrative processesas well as an awareness of the ever-changing social, political, legal, moral, and economic contexts of education. In line with the College's conceptual framework, programs offered through the department meet these challenges by addressing the themes of student and community, disciplinary and pedagogic expertise, technology and assessment, collaboration and lifelong learning, and democracy and diversity. We respect diversity, honor difference, and promote social justice. The department also maintains an ongoing, open dialogue about educational improvement through its association with various federal, state, and local educational agencies and professional organizations.
