Education - Felician College

Education from Felician College is a Campus Master Education Science degree that prepares you for a Education career. The Philosophy of the Division of Teacher Education Felician College is a Franciscan institution emphasizing and practicing the Franciscan traditions and philosophy. As such, the Division of Education believes in and values the potential of its teacher candidates to develop into caring, compassionate and highly qualified educators. We believe the curriculum must place an emphasis on empowering students to become self-actualized by: nurturing their ability to accept self and others; developing the attributes of sincerity, ease, and openness; adopting a problem solving orientation to teaching and to the profession; creating a willingness to live with ambiguity; learning to become empathic and sympathetic toward others; and mastering interpersonal relationships. We further believe that students should be encouraged to develop intuitive awareness in order to access a holistic perception of teaching and learning. Thus, the Division seeks to foster the uniqueness of each person and requires that connections be drawn between a person's inner life and the spiritual realm. The faculty strives to foster student experiences that enhance learning through feelings, emotions, imagination, and wonder. Moreover, the Division asserts that teaching and learning comprise an interdisciplinary process associated with personal experiences, environments, and communities of scholars. Consequently, we believe teaching is a dynamic and reciprocal practice demanding rigorous and current content knowledge. Felician College's student oriented philosophy focuses on connecting the affective and cognitive domains in all teaching and learning situations. The philosophy leads the Division to develop the skills of a reflective practitioner. We emphasize the dispositions of hope, awareness, doubt and faith, awe and reverence. It is our belief that our teacher candidates should similarly empower their learners with these skills. View more details on Felician College .
