It is with great pleasure that I welcome you to the Department of Educational Studies

and to the start of your exciting new programme. We know it was a major decision for

you, which required strategic thought and perhaps some considerable sacrifice. We

plan to do our very best to support the commitment you have made in pursuing teach-

ing as a profession. Our department has also made a commitment with a mission state-

ment to provide quality research and teaching at all levels, throughout the region. Such

a wide mission begins with each individual student, so we welcome each one of you

who will, in fact, be making a contribution. I am sure that you will find it a rich and re-

warding experience, as you join us in this project to make a difference by transforming

our schools, especially here in Jamaica.

How can you make that difference in your schools? To help you achieve this goal we

provide a wide variety of courses to enhance your skills, deepen your knowledge and

sharpen your powers of critical analysis and reflection. At the same time, we model the

flexible delivery systems and the innovative pedagogies that we expect you to take

back to the school system. My colleagues will encourage and support you in a spirit of

collaboration. We also recognise that even the youngest among you are adults and

come with your own experiences that can offer richness and variety to the teaching and

learning process, as a mutually beneficial engagement.

Even beyond the academic, time in a university is very special, and quite unlike any

other phase in your life. More than any other time it should be a period of great intellec-

tual freedom. Granted there might be financial and even emotional strains that cannot

be easily alleviated, but the greatest liberation we hope you will gain is in the freedom to

among a diverse range of activities. It promises to be a wonderful experience. We like to think that we are

very special in a very special profession and a very special university. We hope you will come to share this

view. Enjoy the exploration and the journey.

Beverley Bryan, PhD Head of Department

To take a stranger’s point of view on everyday reality is to look inquiringly and wonderingly on the world in which one lives. It is like returning home from a long stay in some other place…….A Stranger is someone who has returned from some other place and some other experience such that it is impossible to see the world again in the same way. To engage in an educational experi-ence is to make of yourself a stranger not because you will never return home again but because returning home again unchanged is impossible. That is why, Thoreau cautions, one must be free to first engage in the walk. The teacher must be an active walker. (Alan Block on Maxine Greene and Teacher as Stranger).

Dear Students, I extend to you a very warm welcome to the School of Education. In the School we offer a wide range of programmes tailored to meet the educational needs and goals of persons from various educational backgrounds and professional ex-periences. You have joined us to do the Bachelor degree in Education (B.Ed.) so as to ensure that you are well prepared for teaching. You are on the way to becoming a re-flective practitioner empowered to solve problems in your own classroom and to address issues in education with confidence. I hope that you will find the programme one that is intellectually stimulating, that nurtures your self-confidence while at the same time as developing your professional compe-tence. The programme, as you would expect, has its challenges, both academically and at a more personal level. Hopefully, none of you will be trying to balance full-time work with full-time study and family life. As you study full-time, you need to be able to man-age your time well so that you can keep abreast with the work, attend classes, prepare for your in-class presentations and submit your assignments on time. I certainly urge you to set some time aside each day to read an article or chapter of a book, or even part thereof, because this makes a difference. It gives you insight , a dif-ferent perspective and enables you to discuss educational reality from an informed posi-tion. We don’t expect you to read everything on the various reading lists that you will be given because, after all, this is but another milestone on the long road of your lifelong education. There is plenty of time ahead in your professional life to read what you were not able to fit in.

Professor Zellynne Jennings-Craig Director School of Education /Deputy Dean

Put aside some time to take part in other activities in the School of Education and the University at large conferences, symposia, workshops of various kinds, entertainment. Make sure you visit the Philip Sher-lock Creative Arts Centre and take part in activities there, or at least support the University Singers and Dancers. Better still, why not join one of them? As you study, you will find value in forming study groups. These groups can be very supportive. You can discuss and clarify ideas from the lectures, share reading materials, discuss assignments, do group work. Remember that you can always consult your specialist option tutor who will provide the most imme-diate source of guidance if you meet difficulties during the course of the year. There is also a Staff/Student Liaison Committee which can help you in various aspects of your life on campus. Make sure that you get to know the staff members concerned. I hope that you will find the experience in the School a very rich educational journey which makes a positive impact on your lives. I hope it leads to your ability and willingness to develop and apply creative strategies to bring about positive changes in the quality of learning in our educational institutions as well as in the quality of education provided by the nation. Come, take the walk with us. Professor Zellynne Jennings-Craig Director School of Education/Deputy Dean July 2009

Department of Educational Studies

Undergraduate Handbook

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The Department has a threefold mission:

a) Preparing educators for national and regional

education systems;

b) Conducting research on educational issues and

concerns, and providing data to inform the

educational decision-making process; and

c) Providing leadership in institutional development

and programme quality to education systems.

DES activities include the following:

a) Local teaching offering a wide range of face-to-

face undergraduate and graduate programmes.

b) Regional teaching through the distance

education mode.

c) Educational research, including action research

on classroom and school problems,

postgraduate and staff research projects.

d) Professional outreach through the Ministry of

Education (MOE) curricula initiatives such as

PEIP I, PEIP II, PEIP Language Arts

component and ROSE.

e) Public Service – serving on committees, school

boards, service organisations, policy making

arms of government, and editorial and review

boards.

A Critical part of the accelerated (two-year) B.Ed

programme is the six week practicum (research

based field-work). The purposes of the field-based

work are to help experienced teachers achieve the

following:

⇒ reflect on long-held beliefs about why they teach

and what teaching is about;

⇒ review and rebuild a personal philosophy of

teaching and learning that takes account of their

histories and the histories of their students;

⇒ acquire a new perspective on the delivery of

knowledge and its evaluation;

⇒ develop a spirit of inquiry to teaching as

experiment; and

⇒ develop the ability, through reflection and

evaluation, to draw from experiences those

principles applicable to new situations.

The concentration in Computer Science and Information Technology is designed to meet the needs of the teacher and other qualified educators who want to pursue first degree studies in Education, with strong subject content. Rationale This programme is designed to meet the ever changing and evolving needs of teachers of Computer Sci-ence, and to stimulate their commitment to lifelong learning. It seeks also to sharpen their awareness of the need to be in the forefront of development and change in education if they are to remain relevant in the classroom. The programme is therefore not an end in itself. It will equip teachers with the necessary knowledge, skills, and disposition to enable them to engage in independent learning, and ongoing research. It will also foster in teachers a willingness to seek out, respond to and participate in professional development oppor-tunities. This programme of study consist of specialist courses for teachers of Computer Science, a core of Educa-tion courses as well as content courses offered primarily in the Department of Educational Studies, but also includes 30 credits of computer science courses which are done in the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science. Teaching and Learning The courses will be taught at the Mona campus through weekly three hour face-to-face classes. All classes are supported by an Our Virtual Learning Environment (OURVLE) website where course materials and other asynchronous teaching and learning activities are hosted. The online component of each course offers students flexibility and enables students to: ♦ Manage their learning process ♦ Do adequate preparation for each class ♦ Communicate with the lecturer outside of class time ♦ Work collaboratively online with class peers outside of scheduled class times. The teaching and assessment methods that are used in these courses feature portfolio, projects, journal writing and tests. The successful completion of this programme equip graduates to seek employment as specialist Informa-tion technology and Computer Science teacher at the Secondary or Tertiary level of education.

The concentration in Educational Administration is designed to meet the needs of the teacher and other qualified educators who want to pursue first degree studies in Education. Rationale Few will deny that there is the need to provide effective leadership at all levels of the educational system. Societal pressures are mounting from many sources and directions for education to respond to a number of issues. Such issues as quality education, underachievement of boys, school safety, length of the school day, teacher competence, increased financing for schools and the management of conflict demand realistic solutions from educational leaders. In order to provide a quality education product at all levels of the educational system, the education and training of educational administrators/managers is paramount. It is through the theoretical and practical knowledge gained and skills developed that educational administrators/managers will be able to use theory, research and experience to treat the issues and find solutions to pressing problems. A student wishing to do the B.Ed. Education Administration degree on a full time basis will be required to successfully complete a minimum of 66 credit hours, preferably within a two year period. Students who wish to pursue the degree on a part time basis will be required to successfully complete a minimum of 66 credit hours, but within a minimum period of three years and a maximum of five years. Teaching and Learning The courses will be taught at the Mona campus through weekly three hour face-to-face classes. All classes are supported by an Our Virtual Learning Environment (OURVLE) website where course materials and other asynchronous teaching and learning activities are hosted. The online component of each course offers students flexibility and enables students to: ♦ Manage their learning process ♦ Do adequate preparation for each class ♦ Communicate with the lecturer outside of class time ♦ Work collaboratively online with class peers outside of scheduled class times. The teaching and assessment methods that are used in these courses feature portfolio, projects, journal writing and tests. The successful completion of this programme equip graduates to seek employment in Educational Ad-ministration at the Secondary or Tertiary level of education.

The concentration in English Language Arts is designed to meet the needs of the teacher and other quali-fied educators who want to pursue first degree studies in Education. Rationale Early childhood is now internationally recognised as crucial in the human development process. Recent results from brain research point to the sensitive nature of this period and the need for specialists to work with these young children. Consequently, the programme is geared towards the preparation and development of specialists who will pave the way for innovative practices, offer leadership in curriculum development, spearhead the integrated services approach and engage in research activities that would enrich their knowledge about children from birth to eight years. The programme seeks to build on the work that has been done in the Diploma Programme by the teachers’ colleges. Teaching and Learning The courses will be taught at the Mona campus through weekly three hour face-to-face classes. All courses are supported by an Our Virtual Learning Environment (OURVLE) access point, where course materials and other asynchronous teaching and learning activities are hosted. The online component of each course offers students flexibility and enables students to: ♦ Manage their learning process ♦ Do adequate preparation for each class ♦ Communicate with the lecturer outside of class time ♦ Work collaboratively online with class peers outside of scheduled class times. Courses feature a variety of assessment strategies such as portfolio, projects, journal writing and tests.

Rationale Geography and Social Studies are two options in the Education based programme which provide professional training for teachers. Through a range of courses, students/teachers obtain the necessary knowledge and skills in teaching both Social Studies and Geography at the secondary level. Geography is an old established discipline while Social Studies is relatively new with its development as an academic discipline going back to the nineteen fifties (1950's) in the Commonwealth Caribbean. Geography is concerned with people and place. It enables students to see how people adapt to their environment and how human activities are modified by the environment; it fosters abstract thinking as students master geographical concepts; it also provides the opportunity for students to critically think about, and examine, issues and social problems affecting their community/society. Through geographical enquiry students learn to observe, record, make inferences and draw conclusions.

Social Studies, on the other hand, is an interdisciplinary subject consisting of subjects such as History, Social Anthropology , Economics and Geography to name a few. The teaching of Social Studies enables students to acquire skills, knowledge, attitudes and values necessary for good citizenship. The increasing volume of knowledge in the world today means that it is of great importance that students acquire and develop the necessary skills to enable them to succeed, compete and live in a rapidly changing local as well as global society. Students are thus exposed to a variety of enquiry, critical thinking and decision-making skills. Students are introduced to a range of enquiry learning strategies and immersed in unit planning and lesson planning utilising . Geographical skills necessary for teachers of both Geography and Social Studies form an important aspect of the course. Research, a vital component of the course, enables students to acquire content and skills in both disciplines.Seminars, field trips, mini-investigations and community surveys are important aspects of this option.

Teaching and Learning The courses will be taught at the Mona campus through weekly three hour face-to-face classes. All courses are supported by an Our Virtual Learning Environment (OURVLE) access point, where course materials and other asynchronous teaching and learning activities are hosted. The online component of each course offers students flexibility and enables students to: ♦ Manage their learning process ♦ Do adequate preparation for each class ♦ Communicate with the lecturer outside of class time ♦ Work collaboratively online with class peers outside of scheduled class times.

Courses feature a variety of assessment strategies such as portfolio, projects, journal writing and tests.

It will also foster in teachers a willingness to seek out, respond to and participate in professional development oppor-tunities. This programme of study consist of specialist courses for teachers of history, a core of education courses as well as content courses offered primarily in the Department of History and Archaeology. Teaching and Learning The courses will be taught at the Mona campus through weekly three hour face-to-face classes. All classes are supported by an Our Virtual Learning Environment (OURVLE) website where course materials and other asynchronous teaching and learning activities are hosted. The online component of each course offers students flexibility and enables students to: ♦ Manage their learning process ♦ Do adequate preparation for each class ♦ Communicate with the lecturer outside of class time ♦ Work collaboratively online with class peers outside of scheduled class times. The teaching and assessment methods that are used in these courses feature portfolio, projects, journal writing and tests.

The concentration in French is designed to meet the needs of the teacher and other qualified educators who want to pursue first degree studies in Education. Rationale Contemporary views on modern foreign language education reflect a focus on the acquisition of language for the purpose of communication, thus overshadowing the once popular traditional approach, which em-phasized knowledge about the language. The growing importance of the foreign language as a means of communication can be linked to the shrinking of the globe through social, economic and political interac-tions which necessitates competence in more than one’s natural language. However, English-speaking countries, such as those of the Caribbean, are still struggling to find effective ways of achieving bilingual-ism among the school population. The communicative goal invites us to examine the nature of language and how it is acquired in its natural setting, to find clues which may assist us in our re-conceptualization and reformulation of foreign language classroom teaching and learning. Foreign language pedagogy is a very fertile field. It encourages devel-opment through exploration of the literature, critical thinking, practice and reflection. The specialized courses in the programme provide an entry into this important area. . Teaching and Learning The courses will be taught at the Mona campus through weekly three hour face-to-face classes. All courses are supported by an Our Virtual Learning Environment (OURVLE) access point, where course materials and other asynchronous teaching and learning activities are hosted. The online component of each course offers students flexibility and enables students to: ♦ Manage their learning process ♦ Do adequate preparation for each class ♦ Communicate with the lecturer outside of class time ♦ Work collaboratively online with class peers outside of scheduled class times. Courses feature a variety of assessment strategies such as portfolio, projects, journal writing and tests.

The concentration in Literacy Studies is designed to meet the needs of the teacher and other qualified educators who want to pursue first degree studies in Education. Rationale Mathematics is recognized as a discipline that enables the development of critical thinking skills and problem solv-ing abilities. However, many students experience difficulties learning the subject. Teachers of mathematics play a very important role in helping students overcome their fears and challenges in doing and learning the subject. The reform movement expects teachers to understand the emerging standards and views of mathematics teaching and learning and to change their roles and practices accordingly. The effective teacher is able to provide instruction to students of different abilities and experiences and to assess the effective learning mode of their students while en-gaging in reflective practice. The undergraduate mathematics education programmes provide opportunities for par-ticipants to widen their knowledge–base and develop competencies and confidence to effectively teach mathemat-ics. Mathematics Education programmes offered: 1) B.Ed Face-to-face: formerly 66 credits 2) B.Ed Face-to-face formerly 90 credits 3) B.Sc with Education (Mathematics Option). Two programmes are offered for students pursuing the B.Sc with

Mathematics Education offered in the Faculty of Pure & Applied Sciences. One for qualified teachers and the other for students who are seeking initial teaching-training qualifications.

Teaching and Learning The courses will be taught at the Mona campus through weekly three hour face-to-face classes. All classes are supported by an Our Virtual Learning Environment (OURVLE) website where course materials and other asynchronous teaching and learning activities are hosted. The online component of each course offers students flexibility and enables students to: ♦ Manage their learning process ♦ Do adequate preparation for each class ♦ Communicate with the lecturer outside of class time ♦ Work collaboratively online with class peers outside of scheduled class times. The teaching and assessment methods that are used in these courses feature portfolio, projects, journal writing and tests. The successful completion of this programme equip graduates to seek employment as specialist Mathe-matics teacher at the Secondary or Tertiary level of education.

The concentration in Educational Administration is designed to meet the needs of the teacher and other qualified educators who want to pursue first degree studies in Education. Rationale The primary school curriculum has been subject to a number of changes, in recent years, including the introduction of new integrated curricula, novel approaches to the teaching of the language arts and other areas of the curriculum ,the need for teachers to use new technology in their teaching to facilitate learn-ing and the increased emphasis on the teacher as ‘reflective practitioner’. Primary school teachers, now more than ever, need to be equipped to deal with socially sensitive issues in their classrooms as well as concerns which impact on their conduct as professionals. These developments imply the need for this option to provide a core of understandings and skills in the preparation of professionals who seek to develop their expertise in primary education. The option offers a generalist preparation suited to participants who seek to enhance their skills as class-room teachers, but also makes it possible for those who so wish to study a particular subject in greater depth Teaching and Learning The courses will be taught at the Mona campus through weekly three hour face-to-face classes. All classes are supported by an Our Virtual Learning Environment (OURVLE) website where course materials and other asynchronous teaching and learning activities are hosted. The online component of each course offers students flexibility and enables students to: ♦ Manage their learning process ♦ Do adequate preparation for each class ♦ Communicate with the lecturer outside of class time ♦ Work collaboratively online with class peers outside of scheduled class times. The teaching and assessment methods that are used in these courses feature portfolio, projects, journal writing and tests. The successful completion of this programme equip graduates to seek employment as specialist Primary Education Teacher.

The concentration in Educational Admini-stration is designed to meet the needs of the teacher and other qualified educators who want to pursue first degree studies in Education. Rationale This programme is intended to create a cadre of school librarians who should make a significant contribution to the delivery of quality education at the primary and secondary levels. Graduates from the programme will be dually qualified in Education and library Studies both of which are essential to function effectively in the educational setting. The knowledge of librarianship will assist professionals with the administration of the library and equip them with the ability to select and organize resources as well as guide others in their use. The education component is also necessary for effective performance in the school environment as the librarian’s responsibilities include the planning, teaching and evaluation of information skills and interacting with faculty by working cooperatively with teachers to integrate the library into the curriculum. This requires a proper understanding of the curriculum so as to match its various elements with resources in the library. Credit Requirements A student wishing to do the B.Ed. School Librarianship degree on a full time basis will be required to suc-cessfully complete a minimum of 66 credit hours, preferably within a two year period. Students who wish to pursue the degree on a part time basis will be required to successfully complete a minimum of 66 credit hours, but within a minimum period of three years and a maximum of five years. Teaching and Learning The courses will be taught at the Mona campus through weekly three hour face-to-face classes. All Edu-cation courses are supported by an Our Virtual Learning Environment (OURVLE) access point, where course materials and other asynchronous teaching and learning activities are hosted. The online compo-nent of each course offers students flexibility and enables students to: ♦ Manage their learning process ♦ Do adequate preparation for each class ♦ Communicate with the lecturer outside of class time ♦ Work collaboratively online with class peers outside of scheduled class times. Courses feature a variety of assessment strategies such as portfolio, projects, journal writing and tests.

The concentration in Science is designed to meet the needs of the teacher and other qualified educators who want to pursue first degree studies in Education with strong subject content. Rationale In developing countries such as those in the Caribbean, there is an urgent need for the citizens to appreciate how much the principles of science can be applied in many aspects of their daily activities. Science teachers play a central role in achieving this objective. In many of our schools, students complain that science is difficult and uninteresting and too often students are unable to apply the principles of science in relevant areas of their everyday lives. The B.Ed in Science programme offers teachers opportunities to deepen their knowledge of the nature, scope and applications of science. In addition, it provides opportunities for teachers to develop competencies in a wide array of strategies and techniques suitable for engaging the learner in meaningful teaching/learning activities. Teaching and Learning The courses will be taught at the Mona campus through weekly three hour face-to-face classes. All courses are supported by an Our Virtual Learning Environment (OURVLE) access point, where course materials and other asynchronous teaching and learning activities are hosted. The online component of each course offers students flexibility and enables students to: ♦ Manage their learning process ♦ Do adequate preparation for each class ♦ Communicate with the lecturer outside of class time ♦ Work collaboratively online with class peers outside of scheduled class times. Courses feature a variety of assessment strategies such as portfolio, projects, journal writing and tests.

The UWI administration is acutely aware of the financial difficulties facing many students. Therefore, with the help of various public-spirited organisations and individuals, it has endeavoured to provide funds which can be of assistance to students in situations of severe hardship or emergency. Information pertaining to such funds is given below, but in order to access them, the following criteria must be met: Criteria for eligibility for financial aid 1. Awards will be made to students who are full-time undergraduates at Mona. 2. Under normal circumstances, applications from first year students will not be considered. 3. Inability to meet the maintenance budget as determined by the University must be established.

(All applicants will be asked to complete a financial status form to establish need.) A letter attesting to this need, from a Minister of Religion, Justice of the Peace, last employer or last school Principal, must accompany the application.

4. In the case of loans, applicants must demonstrate their ability to repay. Normally, repayments for

loans already disbursed should be made. 5. Students must prove that they have exhausted or have been turned down for all other available

sources of financing for reasons not connected with the non-payment of previous loans. 6. Students who have failed more than one course in previous semester will not normally be eligible.

In exceptional cases, where it can be established that lack of funds has contributed significantly to the poor academic performance, some consideration may be given. In such cases, it must be understood that improved performance is expected after the receipt of financial assistance.

Funds available a) Grants Jamaican Government Needy Students' Fund (Funds are available to Jamaican nationals who are not in receipt of scholarships or bursaries in

excess of $10,000) - Mona Campus Needy Students' Fund - Grace Kennedy Assistance Fund - Chemistry Department Needy Students' Fund - Students' Hardship Fund - Jamaica Support Foundation - Physics Department Needy Students' Award

b) Loans - A.Z. Preston Needy Students' Fund - E.V. Ellington (W.I.G.U.T.) Revolving Loan Fund - Mutual Security Loan Fund - Senior Administrative Staff Fund - Edward Slifer Loan Scheme (Available to Medical Students only) - Edward Moulton-Barrett Revolving Loan Guidelines for Repayment of Loans The following guidelines apply to loans given as financial aid except in the case of loans funded by donors who have specified the terms and conditions of such loans. 1. Students will be sent a reminder three months in advance of the date of commencement of the

repayment 2. The commencement of the repayment of loans will be six months after the end of the student's final

academic year, that is, repayment will normally begin in December of the year of graduation. 3. A graduate who has an outstanding loan will be debarred from: a) re-registering for any course of study at the University unless some mutually agreed arrangements have been made to repay, b) obtaining a transcript for further study/employment c) receiving a diploma (where feasible), and d) use of facilities of the University such as the Chapel and Library 4. In the case of transcripts or diplomas, and the use of the facilities of the University, these will be made

available to the graduate on his/her signing a salary deduction authorisation, if employed. Employers will be asked to inform the University should the graduate leave their employment while still having outstanding loans.

5. All applicants must have two guarantors who will be required to repay, should the applicant default on

the loan. The importance of repaying loans to allow for the continuity of the facility cannot be over-emphasised. Contact Persons Students wishing to apply for any of the above grants or loans should contact one of the following:

⇒ The Dean of Students ⇒ Wardens of the Halls of Residence ⇒ Student Counsellors, ⇒ Chaplains

Why a minor?

Many students are seeking to make themselves more marketable by doing Minors in Education. In the

past, however, they have selected courses randomly. The department now recommends that for a minor

in Education, the student should do a total of six credits of core education courses and nine credits of re-

quired courses in a selected specialization.

These courses are designed to provide the student with: an introduction to the Foundations of Education;

an orientation to the Practice of Education; an introduction to selected methods of teaching a subject.

While the Minor in Education may attract the graduate into teaching, it does not qualify the person to be

paid as a trained graduate.

The courses to be taken for Minors in Education are:

1.0 A Core Education Courses (6 credits)

ED20C: Motivation and the Teacher

and ONE of:

ED20M: Introduction to Curriculum Studies

ED30C: Classroom Concerns

ED30D: Educational Technology

B Specialisation Courses (9 credits)
