This course is a study of human learning and cognitive organization and process. The content will provide an overview of the development of learning theory and cognitive models since the beginning of the scientific study of human learning and mental processes. Major theories concerning the learning process and their implications for the instructional process are investigated. The focus of the course will be the linkage between theory and educational practice. Attention will be given to the cognitive, affective, and sensory/psychomotor domains and implications for learning through different modalities. Contributions of neuroscience to understanding adolescent research are explored, and structural barriers to learning such as stereotype threat are discussed. Students will gain insights into the interplay of learner characteristics, prior experiences, the medium of instruction, and cultural influences and understand that learning is contextual, with no single theory universally applying to every student in every situation.
In this course, students will learn to develop a curriculum and to evaluate it knowledgeably by engaging in curriculum design. The course will consider current issues in curriculum design and curriculum leadership. The major design frameworks for the development of curricula will be explored, including how decisions should be made about curriculums. Students will conduct mapping, at the primary and secondary levels of education for International school systems.

The course on Assessment and Evaluation in the classroom provides teachers with an in-depth understanding of the concepts and techniques used to measure and evaluate outcomes in the field of education. The course focuses on various measurement tools, including teacher-made and standardized tests and alternative evaluation strategies. Teachers will learn how to interpret and analyze the outcomes of measurements, both in terms of cognitive, affective, and psychomotor domains. Additionally, the course covers the assessment of learning outcomes and the use of measurement tools to determine reliability, validity, and usefulness.



This course is designed to provide students with knowledge, skills and experience in implementing educational technology into a pedagogically sound learning environment. This course also emphasizes the critical evaluation and pedagogical design aspects of integrating technology in instruction. Students will develop and use digital and nondigital teaching- learning resources using technology tools appropriate in various subject areas in the Primary and Secondary level. Further, the course will provide opportunities for students to use technology tools to develop project-based collaborative activities and share resources among communities of practice
