L12 Educ 4053Educational Psychology Lab: A Focus on Teaching and Learning in School Settings1.0 Unit
Description:This lab accompanies 4052 and has two paths available: one path for those majoring or interested in Teacher Education and a second path for all other students, including those in Educational Studies. Please read the following information carefully about the two paths. If you have any questions please direct them to the instructor. FOR STUDENTS CONSIDERING TEACHER EDUCATION: This required lab provides direct and indirect experiences with contemporary K-12 educational practice in schools through 30 clock hours of field observation to be completed during the semester. Students will observe the daily life of teachers and their interactions with children and adolescents, with the dual goal of understanding the professional nature of the setting (i.e. pedagogical decision-making processes, expectations and requirements for teachers, institutional functioning, etc.) and evaluating the presence or influence of educational psychology research in the daily practice of the setting. Assignments will include observation notes, discussions with lab members, and a brief, summative portrait of the site. ENROLLMENT NOTE: Students must complete their observations in school settings assigned by the WUSTL Department of Education Field Placement Specialist, and students must be concurrently enrolled in L12 EDUC 4052 (3.0 credits). FOR ALL OTHER STUDENTS: This optional lab provides direct and indirect experiences with contemporary K-12 educational practice through 30 clock hours of field observation to be completed during the semester. Sites may range from schools to educational nonprofits, and students must propose their observation setting to the course instructor for approval no later than two weeks before the start of the semester.

Home/Ident

A course may be either a “Home” course or an “Ident” course.

A “Home” course is a course that is created, maintained and “owned” by one academic department (aka the “Home” department). The “Home” department is primarily responsible for the decision making and logistical support for the course and instructor.

An “Ident” course is the exact same course as the “Home” (i.e. same instructor, same class time, etc), but is simply being offered to students through another department for purposes of registering under a different department and course number.

Students should, whenever possible, register for their courses under the department number toward which they intend to count the course. For example, an AFAS major should register for the course "Africa: Peoples and Cultures" under its Ident number, L90 306B, whereas an Anthropology major should register for the same course under its Home number, L48 306B.
