School of Teacher Education Offers Online Masters Degree in Teaching

The School of Teacher Education is offering a fully online Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT) program, allowing both teachers and students alike the opportunity to avoid fighting traffic and scheduling conflicts and to interact through their degree programs online.

The online MAT in Elementary Education or Secondary Education focuses on teaching about inquiry education and the needs of culturally and linguistically diverse students. The program consists of high quality professional development and focuses on teaching critical thinking skills to K-12 students.

The curriculum also presents research on effective strategies for culturally and linguistically diverse students. The program includes classes about culturally relevant education, teaching English learners, strategies for inclusion, and how to assess student progress.

This is a low-cost, convenient program where teachers can participate from the comfort of their homes. Most credentialed teachers can earn their degree in as little as one year.
