| Description |
The UC Davis School of Education (SOE) marshals the knowledge and resources of the world's top public university to confront inequities in K-12 schools and community colleges and to effect and support needed change. We educate and mentor high quality teachers and educational leaders who serve as advocates for all learners. We engage in research and policy analysis focused on student outcomes, and we forge strong partnerships with school districts and organizations to position our graduates to address the greatest challenges facing educators.
The SOE’s research strengths are well aligned with the needs of the state. Efforts in faculty hiring, program development, and partnership building focus on those needs: English learners; assessment; math, science and technology; neurodevelopment and education; literacy; and education policy. We have expanded our work with practicing educators through professional development programs and graduate degree programs designed especially for veteran educators. Our science single subject credential program prepares teachers to align communication, collaboration, inquiry, problem solving, and flexibility with in-depth understanding of content in order to bring high quality, hands-on science education to California's diverse classrooms. Our mathematics single subject credential program prepares teachers to use core teaching practices skillfully and strategically to engage students in meaningful problem-solving, reasoning, sense-making, and discourse. In addition, our mathematics program emphasizes student collaboration, formative assessment, leveraging students’ mathematical strengths, and supporting students’ diverse needs in order to make the content accessible to all students and develop confident mathematics learners. Each UC Davis elementary and secondary credential program (agriculture, English, mathematics, science, and social science) offers the teacher candidate the opportunity to complete the credential program and MA degree in six quarters.
