EDME 516 - Montessori Ped of Place

3 Credit Hours
This course will follow-up on the groundwork laid in the Erdkinder EDME 499 course. Through a variety of readings and hands-on experiences students will learn how to encourage thoughtful yet provocative Socratic discussions. Candidates in this course take part in an urban adaptation to the Erdkinder course, in this case the study of the history and ethnic neighborhoods of Cincinnati, and at the same time create, develop, and write a Pedagogy of Place course that they will implement in their own school settings. As with all courses in this program, this course emphasizes the Erdkinder values of Peace, Community, Hardwork, Respect, and Peace. The courses that students develop are required to be highly rigorous academic field studies that inspire the student by helping them invest in the local community and by allowing them access to experts and community organizers who care deeply about their neighborhoods.
