Resource Details

The Connected Open Online Learning (COOL) resources are meant to enable student teachers and teacher educators to stay connected to their learning and engage with concepts and practices for active and inclusive teaching and learning.

They are mapped onto the B.Ed Curriculum Framework of NCTE. (See the table below). Please note that these resources consist of some of the key topics put together as a resource and do not cover the entire course comprehensively.

These resources provide an overview of key topics from each course based on current research and practices. They are not exhaustive. It is essential to follow up with rigorous readings and school-based practices that are integral and necessary for teacher preparation. The resources provide scaffolding for some readings and suggestions for tasks to strengthen practice.

This resource on Gender, School, and Society is based on available Open Education Resources (OERs) reflecting current research and practices in this area. They are meant to give student teachers and teacher educators a broad overview of the contemporary discourses and practices in this area of study. The resources provide pointers for further readings to deepen one’s understanding, provide questions for critical reflections, and suggest tasks to help connect theory to classroom practice.

The resource is available free of cost.
