  • Program Description*
    The online Master of Education with a major in media includes two tracks: Instructional Technology and School Library Media. Both degrees are designed to prepare students to be progressive, innovative, and academically grounded in theory and rooted in practice. Graduates of the Instructional Technology program apply their skills in the marketplace of the P – 12 school, as well as higher education, corporate environment, health care and governmental organizations. Graduates of the School Library Media program are well grounded in the day-to-day management of the P – 12 School Library Media Centers. While in the program, Instructional Technology students have the opportunity to collaborate with stakeholders through technology-based tools and applications while School Library Media students derive learning experiences from practical field experiences in library settings. Faculty teaching in the program are grounded in theoretical perspective and practical application of knowledge to ensure that candidates are able to immediately apply learning objectives in diverse educational settings.
  • Status*
  • REVISE the items below as needed.

    **If you are revising one of the following items,  please modify above from what was imported in:

    • Program Name
    • Program Description
  • Modified Program Learning Outcomes
  • Modification Comments*
    For the Master's program we are changing from having both the IT track and the SLM track on the same program sheet. We have also updated two courses on the SLM track. MEDT 6461 will become MEDT 7451 and MEDT 6465 will become MEDT 7455. In addition, we are adding SPED 6706 and MEDT 7485 to electives. The old and proposed SLM program sheets are attached.
  • Rationale*
    Currently we have one Media program sheet at the Master's level. However with three tracks currently listed it is difficult for students to understand program requirements. The tracks include IT, SLM, and SLM with IT certification. We have also added two courses at the 7000 level replacing two 6000 level courses. The updated SLM program sheet reflects this change as well.
