Students examine relationships among schools, parents, and communities and explore interactions, classroom organizations, and management approaches that help pre-service teachers understand how to establish classroom climates which support learning in a culturally responsive way. Explores how adolescent aged learners grow and develop across varying differences including social, emotional and physical, and prepares students to design and implement developmentally appropriate, culturally responsive and challenging learning experiences for the single subjects classroom.
