EMSE 5540J Urban Challenge
This course focuses on the bureaucratic/social structure of urban public education. It provides the opportunity for students to examine the manner in which urban issues affecting education (e.g., intercultural relations, crime, poverty) are researched and responded to by way of policies, legislation procedures, and work with communities (e.g., parents, parent groups, social service agencies). The course includes twelve hours of students observing teachers in their urban classrooms. (Previously NJCU Course EDU-654)
