They stem from the School of Education&#8217;s mission and the knowledge of the preparation of teachers, organized by the four conceptual strands.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/academics-ed-OutcomesMAEd.htm\">Outcomes &#8211; Masters of Arts in Education<\/a><br \/>\nThe Master of Arts in Education is designed for teachers who want to renew and re-examine their professional practice.\u00a0 The same moral purposes and conceptual strands guide all programs for teachers at Ë¿¹ÏÊÓƵAPP.\u00a0 The outcomes also relate to National Board Propositions.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/academics-ed-edleadership.htm\">Outcomes &#8211; Educational Leadership<\/a><br \/>\nEducational Leadership programs at Ë¿¹ÏÊÓƵAPP, both masters and doctorate levels, are constructed around three recurring themes that emerge from the conceptual model.<\/p>\n<p>Outcomes &#8211;  Higher Education Leadership<br \/>\nThe doctorate in Higher Education Leadership program addresses critical issues in higher education and prepares leaders to meet the challenges of today and the future. The curriculum is grounded in four program outcomes: 1) The People which includes ethical and reflective leadership, communication skills, and innovation; 2) The Institution which focuses on analyzing problems of practice and using multiple frames to develop and defend solutions; 3) The Context which refers to understanding the impact of environmental forces on higher education; and 4) The Research which emphasizes the ability to analyze, understand, and use data to conduct scholarly research.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"sharing-default-minimal post-bottom\"><div class=\"nectar-social default\" data-position=\"\" data-rm-love=\"0\" data-color-override=\"override\"><div class=\"nectar-social-inner\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"nectar-love\" id=\"nectar-love-9\" title=\"Love this\"> <i class=\"icon-salient-heart-2\"><\/i><span class=\"love-text\">Love<\/span><span class=\"total_loves\"><span class=\"nectar-love-count\">0<\/span><\/span><\/a><a class='facebook-share nectar-sharing' href="#" title='Share this'> <i class='fa fa-facebook'><\/i> <span class='social-text'>Share<\/span> <\/a><a class='twitter-share nectar-sharing' href="#" title='Tweet this'> <i class='fa fa-twitter'><\/i> <span class='social-text'>Tweet<\/span> <\/a><a class='linkedin-share nectar-sharing' href="#" title='Share this'> <i class='fa fa-linkedin'><\/i> <span class='social-text'>Share<\/span> <\/a><a class='pinterest-share nectar-sharing' href="#" title='Pin this'> <i class='fa fa-pinterest'><\/i> <span class='social-text'>Pin<\/span> <\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The mission of the School of Education at Ë¿¹ÏÊÓƵAPP is to prepare socially responsible critical thinkers who are collaborative and reflective educators committed to the moral endeavor of schooling in a democracy.
