EDLD 715 - Leadership for a Diverse Society

Units: 4 quarter units

Addresses theories and practices for achieving schools and classrooms that are informed by and built around the participation of diverse communities and cultures. Emphasis on how leadership intersects with sociohistorical and sociocultural theories that suggest the organization of schools and instruction is critical to student inclusion and outcomes. A basic premise of this course is that a socially just learning theory begins with using all of the resources and knowledge of families, communities, and cultures in formulating policy and practice.
