EDCO 280 - History of American Education
3 Credit(s)
History of American Education is a survey course that provides an awareness of the development of American education in respect to social, historical, and philosophical foundations. In the process of addressing the foundation areas, particular attention will be given to the education of all populations and their respective backgrounds, contributions and rights, the legal and ethical foundations of schooling and teaching, and the organizational structure of schooling in America. The topics covered will provide beginning educators, future tax payers, and potential school board members with a broad picture of education and schooling in the United States, and give them a framework in which to make informed decisions in a complicated educational environment. EDCO 280 satisfies the Iowa Department of Education requirement of knowledge in the broad areas of foundations of education and related issues, and in conjunction with EDCO 291 and ESSI 101 fulfills the human relations coursework requirements.
