Subject: Summer and Fall 2002 Course Scheduling Advice

Greetings to all ed tech graduate students at the University of Delaware!
I am writing to provide you with course scheduling advice for the upcoming
Summer session and Fall semester of 2002. As always, you should check with
your advisor each semester to confirm that your course selection is in 
line with your  particular program. This course advisory contains sections
for M.Ed. Students, M.I. Students, and Ed.D. Students, respectively.

                  ===Courses for M.Ed. Students=== 

All M.Ed. students are required to take 3-6 credits of the following
courses. EDUC 607 is being taught during the first summer session as
well as in the Fall of 2002. EDUC 600 and 660 are not on the schedule
at this time.

    EDUC 600 Teacher as Researcher 
    EDUC 607 Educational Research Procedures 
    EDUC 660 Applied Educational Measurement 

From the ed tech specialty, all M.Ed. students must take the following two
courses that are being offered in the Fall of 2002: 

    EDUC 685 Multimedia Literacy 
    EDUC 632 Using the Internet for Curriculum Applications 

If you are looking to take an ed tech elective in the Fall of 2002, you may
be interested in the following option. M.Ed. students may elect one of the
EDUC  885 courses to fulfill a 600-level technology requirement. In the Fall
of 2002, the following courses are being offered:

    EDUC 885-010 Advanced Topics in Multimedia Design
    EDUC 885-156 Advanced Topics in Web Design

The advanced topics courses are repeatable, meaning that you are permitted
to take them again in a subsequent semester. 


                  ===M.I. Students=== 

All M.I. Students must take either EDUC 600 (Teacher as Researcher) or EDUC
629 (Psychology of Teaching). EDUC 629 is being offered in Newark during the
first summer session, and in Georgetown during the second summer session.
These courses are not on the fall schedule.

(Academic and Behavioral Assessment). EDUC 680 is being offered in the first

or EDUC 681 (Techniques for Behavior Change). Both of these courses are being
offered in the first summer session. EDUC 681 is also being offered in the
Fall of 2002.

M.I. students must take either EDUC 627 (Models of Instruction) or EDUC 640
(Introduction to Curriculum). EDUC 640 is being offered in the first summer
session, and EDUC 627 is being taught in the Fall of 2002.

All M.I. students must take the following technology courses that are being
offered in the Fall of 2002:

                ===Ed.D. Students===

All Ed.D. students are required to take EDUC 861 (Curriculum Development
and Evaluation) and EDUC 829 (Research on Teaching). Both of these are

In the meantime, I hope you will all pass your final exams and projects with
flying colors and then enjoy a pleasant summer.  Cheers, Fred
