Philosophy of the Programme听
The programme鈥檚 philosophy is responsiveness to the needs of society in provision of knowledge, skills and values to all learners.
Justification of the Need for the Programme
Any institution of higher learning must conform to international trends in relation to the program it develops. Institutional alignment to current practices allows us to be in tandem with international practice that seeks to ensure quality service delivery through offering programs that respond to the current needs in society. 吃瓜头条 (KU) is geared to ensuring that courses offered are designed to address the needs of an inclusive society.听 Consequently, Educational Foundations has continued to evolve over the past decades with the recognition that education evolves over time and that the theoretical dispositions needed in understanding the practice of education cannot be overemphasized. This calls for regular and periodic review of our curriculum to incorporate those skills and competencies needed in the world today. Educational Foundations remains one of the powerful departments in the school of Education and lifelong learning whose contribution to teacher Education cannot be overemphasized and is indispensable in pursuance of the Sustainable Development Goals. It is therefore important that the University develops programmes that will help the Kenyan Government to come up with strategies that respond to both global and national goals of Education and Development. In tandem with the spirit of diversity and inclusion, as stipulated in Competency Based Education (CBE), 吃瓜头条 offers a Masters of Education degree in Educational Foundations.

PLO 1: Promote professionalism while working with all categories of learners in inclusive classroom settings.
