Vision:
The College of Education is a unit in an urban-based institution of higher education that provides global leadership in the preparation of education professionals by advancing:
(a) best practices in teaching that impact student learning,
(b) knowledge through research and scholarship,
(c) critical thinking, and
(d) service through outreach efforts.
Mission:
The mission of the College is to offer high quality programs and services that prepare education professionals (including teachers, counselors, diagnosticians, leaders, librarians, information specialists, leisure personnel and others) to plan, organize, deliver, assess, support and oversee instructional activities. The College is committed to fostering effective teaching practices in settings with significantly diverse student populations.
Conceptual Framework:
All activities in the College are guided by the belief that we Prepare All Candidates To Succeed, which translates into the PACTS acronym. The PACTS acronym also represents the strands for the College of Education’s
Conceptual Framework which serves as a model for how the College of Education prepares all candidates to succeed in helping urban children learn. This preparation is characterized and distinguished by five core themes: (P) Professionalism, (A) Assessment, (C) Content knowledge, (T) Technology, and (S) Standards.
