Exceptional Education-Exceptional Experiences

Crandall University’s Master of Education is a degree designed for educators who want to enhance their abilities to respond to student needs. This 36 credit hour M.Ed. is offered in two concentrations: Literacy Education and Resource Education. Both concentrations offer applications-based courses, so they provide educators with the tools needed to apply their knowledge. The Literacy Education concentration advances language learning classroom practices for all students, and the Resource Education option focuses on exceptional learners and inclusionary methods. Graduates of the program may serve as teacher educators, literacy coaches, reading specialists, resource educators, guidance counselors, or researchers.


Applicants to the M.Ed. are required to hold a Bachelor of Education degree, or its equivalent, with a minimum grade point average of 3.0 (B). They are also expected to have at least the equivalent of one year of teaching experience.


Crandall University has

offered Master-level courses since 2006, as a direct response to the NB government’s new emphasis on Literacy and as a central strategy to achieving its educational mandate.


Advanced Foundations of Eduation: This course includes exploration into the disciplines of philosophy, history, and sociocultural context of education. Course content focuses on investigating philosophy’s questions regarding the nature of humanness and schooling, history’s account of the role of schools, and social science’s view of structures, ideologies, and agency as they relate to schooling. It seeks to equip students with ways to see education as the practice of developing persons in various secular and Christian-based images

Research Methods in Education: This course will provide participants with an introduction to the basic concepts of educational research and their application. Participants will be introduced to the language of research, ethical principles and challenges, and the core elements of the research process within qualitative, quantitative approaches, and participatory (including Action Research) approaches. Opportunity will be given to apply these theoretical underpinnings and skills to a critical evaluation of published research.

“As Superintendent of the Anglophone East School District, I believe that our teachers are the key to providing quality education. I, therefore, also believe in hiring the best qualified candidates from top quality pre-service programs. The Crandall University graduates have consistently demonstrated an exemplary balance of education and practical knowledge. In addition to strong academic programs, the Faculty of Education at Crandall has consistently exposed their students to educational practioners with a wealth of experience at the elementary and secondary levels. This focus on providing practical experience with an emphasis on strong classroom management and collaborative skills, delivered by caring experienced educators who consistently share their love for students and the teaching profession, gives the Crandall graduates the edge they need to be successful.� -Greg Ingersoll, Superintendent, Anglophone East District
