What will I learn?

The Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT), designed for concurrent enrollment in a teaching credential program, offers a coordinated series of learning experiences that are built upon a conceptual framework grounded in social justice and organized around themes of reflection, decision-making, facilitation, continuous learning, research, leadership, and collaboration. The program has a strong connection with public schools and emphasizes the importance of providing pre-service teachers with multiple opportunities for observation, interaction, reflection, facilitation, instruction, collaboration, and leadership in a TK-12 learning community. Upon completion of the MAT, students receive a Master of Arts in Teaching and will be recommended to the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing for a teaching credential.
