The Department
The primary mission of the Department of Curriculum, Teaching, and Educational
Technology is the preparation and continuing education of K-12 educators,
particularly teachers. Coursework and field experiences are designed to
prepare teachers who are reflective thinkers, problem solvers, and decision
makers to meet the challenges of teaching in a rapidly changing world characterized
by social, economic, and cultural/linguistic diversity.
The coursework offers students opportunities to develop and refine their
understanding of the teaching/learning process while experiencing the best
of the world of practice. Supervised field experiences along with instructional
planning and evaluation techniques provide the foundation for productive
and responsive teaching. In this context, all faculty promote teaching as
a science and an art. Programs offered through the Department of Curriculum,
Teaching, and Educational Technology are identified within two major categories:
teaching credential programs and master's degree programs.
CalStateTEACH. See Special Programs: CalStateTEACH.

This unique geographical position allows for ready access to a variety of school systems large urban schools as well as many less populated school districts in predominantly rural settings. Recent statistical reports provide evidence that the area population is continuing to increase along with the number of school-aged children. This pattern of growth along with anticipated attrition from the teaching profession provides considerable evidence of a growing demand for classroom teachers, curriculum specialists, and other positions directly or indirectly related to the field of education
