LLS510 A Contemporary Understanding of Lasallian Pedagogy (5 cr.)

In this course, the implications for the leadership and management of the Catholic School in a pluralist society are explored. The relevance and application of Lasallian pedagogies in the contemporary Lasallian school are critically examined, particularly in the context of religious education and the application of teaching and learning strategies.

Upon completion of the course, students are expected to be able to do the following:

1. Evaluate traditional Lasallian pedagogies in the light of contemporary educational and curriculum development.
2. Analyze an inclusive model of education, based on the Lasallian tradition, encompassing contemporary brain theory, knowledge of learning style, and the development of effective learning centers.
3. Develop a personal position on appropriate delivery of learning in the context of the Lasallian school within the Catholic tradition.
