Teacher Leadership: M.Ed. (Online)

About this program

The master of education (M.Ed.) degree in teacher leadership is a fully online, 30-credit program that gives educators an understanding of school-based teacher leadership roles and responsibilities. With this flexible program, students can learn on their own schedule, from the convenience of their home. The program is aligned with the National Teacher Leadership Standards developed by the Teacher Leadership Exploratory Consortium.

The program aims to develop teachers who are able to:

  • Coach and mentor others.
  • Leverage technology to foster collaboration.
  • Systematically assess classroom- and school-based data to identify pupil needs and collaboratively select intervention methods.
  • Apply understanding about diverse schools when developing culturally relevant professional development.
  • Use the knowledge, skills and dispositions of a teacher-leader to enable them to lead from the classroom.
