  • The History of Boston University

Students access archival materials, tour historic sites, and construct historical narratives. Students also reflect on both their experiences and the work of education to enhance future practice. Effective Summer 2020, this course fulfills a single unit in each of the following BU Hub areas: Historical Consciousness, The Individual in Community, Creativity/Innovation. 4 cr. Tuition: $3020

  • School Improvement Science and Implementation

    SED AP 759

    Focuses on the heart of the educational enterprise: schools in which each and every student is intellectually and socially engaged, finds areas of interest and passion, feels known and cared for, and deserves a dignified next step. Students carefully examine ways in which collaboration–within schools and between practitioners, university researchers, and policy makers–becomes a fundamental school improvement strategy. Guided by the work of Anthony Bryk et al., Charles Kenney, and by the experience and reflections of successful and respected school and school district leaders, students study the relationship between practice, research, and policy. Emphasis is placed on collaborative problem-solving in “networked improvement communities.” Students explore the history of education reform and how, too often, education reform fails to achieve its inspiring goals. Students work to create new knowledge that can interrupt the failure of school reform, particularly with students from low-income families. 4 cr. Tuition: $3020
