Your Purpose, Their Future—Elevated Through Education
You already understand the basics of effective teaching. But how do you elevate your impact as a leader and educator? You dive deeper into classroom dynamics while expanding your knowledge and skills beyond the classroom itself. You examine the impact of current social issues on K-12 education. You explore technology integration, research techniques, and curriculum/assessment development. You experience how Christ-centered leadership and community relations profoundly impact the world of education.
Quite simply, from fundamental core principles to modern cultural influence, you elevate your understanding, ability, and impact as a teacher or administrator. That’s your Master of Education degree, at NGU.
Choose from one of the following four concentrations to delve further into your area of interest:
- Gifted and Talented/Teaching Children of Poverty
- Learning Disabilities
- Literacy Coach/Literacy Specialist
- Teacher Leader
