The Mission of the School
The primary mission of the Kremen School of Education and Human Development (KSOEHD) is the recruitment and development of ethically informed leaders for classroom teaching, education administration, counseling, and higher education. Our mission is realized through a framework of teaching, scholarship, and service that addresses regional, state, national, and international perspectives.
KSOEHD prepares highly competent educators and human development specialists, while providing professional support and leadership to the community, promoting applied research, and providing experiences and opportunities that will enable employed professionals to remain current in their fields.
Students attend classes, study, and work in a state-of-the-art Education
Building. This five-story facility includes clinical areas and computer
and microteaching laboratories.
KSOEHD fosters the realization of human potential by preparing those who
work in the field of education and human development to function more effectively
and productively in a mutable and increasingly diverse society.
The KSOEHD theme, Leadership for Diverse Communities, places considerable
emphasis on an educator who can function effectively as a leader in a culturally
and linguistically diverse society.
Specific goals of the KSOEHD are as follows: recruiting diverse candidates
representative of the region; providing leadership in the application of
best practice models and educational technology; preparing graduates who
have a command of content/pedagogical knowledge and continue to grow professionally;
establishing a national demonstration site for exemplary practices in education
and counseling; supporting lifelong professional development of practicing
professionals through services and programs; preparing leaders committed
to serve in diverse communities; promoting performance assessment as a key
evaluation component in all programs; establishing an exemplary university
work environment; promoting development activities for the attainment of
program excellence; and being the higher education partner of choice for
the public schools in the five county region.
