Prerequisite: Acceptance in the BA Elementary Education Program.
This foundations course introduces pre-service teachers to educational theories to help them understand how children attempt to "make sense" of information and events that shape learning and development in their lives at school as well as outside the school environment. Navajo and non-Navajo perspectives of how children learn and develop are studied with a focus on students from non-English-language backgrounds.
