In alignment with the SJSU Strategic Plan, Transformation 2030 - hyperlink ; the Lurie College of Education (LCOE) Strategic Plan - hyperlink ; and the TED vision and mission - hyperlink and program learning outcomes - hyperlink , we seek to reimagine PK-12 teacher education by centering the assets of students who are diverse in terms of ethnicity / race, language, socioeconomic status, gender identity, sexual orientation, neurology, creed, and other intersectional characteristics of identity.

We aim to transform the local teaching force so that it better reflects the students we serve. For information on the department, go to https://www.sjsu.edu/teachered/ .
