EG 6463 - Integrating Faith in Academic Disciplines (3)

This course addresses the goal of meeting both the intellectual and spiritual needs of students through the integration of faith in academic content areas as part of the college’s overall goal to provide all schools (Christian, private and public) with the best teachers the college can produce. While teachers are expected to be deeply grounded in their academic disciplines, this course is designed to help them identify areas that will promote the integration of faith and learning, create faith-integration learning activities in the classroom, to use faith-oriented scholarly resources and to ensure academic rigor while integrating faith. Topics to be included are developing learning outcomes, assignments and activities; maintaining intellectual rigor and perseverance in these products; and purposefully making faith connections throughout the planned units and lessons. Ed.S. sections have additional course objectives.
