social justice education, action
research, and Web-based teaching/learn-ing
— to improve school curriculum and
instruction, help close the achievement gap
in our nation’s public schools, and extend
the academic and technological foundation
provided in teacher credentialing programs.
The online MAT focuses explicitly on ap-plied
advanced study in K-12 classrooms,
incorporating a mixture of more critically
oriented theoretical and research skills, as
well as more emphasis on practitioner-ori-ented
knowledge, skills and dispositions, to
increase learning for all students. Program
applicants must have a teaching credential
to be admissible to the online MAT.

individual professional development

for Ed.D. and Ph.D. terminal degrees.
These include the following:
• Classroom teacher/leader
• Professional Learning Community (PLC)
teacher/leader
• Curriculum, instruction, and technology
