- Students in the MAT program will bring valuable experience and expertise to assist in their exploration of the practice of teaching. In addition to learning about adolescent learners and how to teach them, MAT coursework spurs students to think about the goals, values, beliefs and assumptions underlying formal schooling, and to consider schools in social, political and historical contexts.
- The MAT coursework will be offered weekdays in the late afternoon and evening hours and/or Saturdays to enable students to earn the degree through part-time study. Students who are employed will be able to complete the degree through after-work study except for the Directed Teaching requirement. This will occur during the last semester of each students residency.
