The program may be taken as one of the following options:
Course work option: consists exclusively of course work. This option is less research-oriented than the thesis and non-thesis project options and is suitable for practitioners interested in professional development with a theoretical orientation.
Math & Science Education (Course Work) option: emphasizes a pedagogical understanding of mathematics and science education, including a specific focus on teacher education in the areas of mathematics and science.
Gender and Women's Studies option (Project): provides the opportunity to pursue coursework focusing on gender and women's studies, and issues in feminist research and methods. The option consists mainly of coursework, and includes two smaller projects. This option is suitable for practitioners interested in professional development with a research and theoretical orientation.
Jewish Education option: is designed to offer a graduate-level point of entry into the teaching profession for students who typically will have completed a B.A. with minor or major in Jewish Studies. The M.A. will not provide Quebec Government teacher certification (in Quebec, certification is at the B.Ed. level), but at the present time, Jewish schools may hire non-certified teachers of Jewish Studies at their discretion.
Math & Science Education (Project) option: emphasizes action-oriented research in mathematics and science education, with a specific focus on teacher education in the areas of mathematics and science.
Keywords: culture, values & education, learning, curriculum.
