Statement of beliefs about the learning process

• Diversity is a critical part of the learning process and that education involves valuing cultural, gender, language, political, philosophical and pedagogical differences.

   

• The social context of the learning process must be addressed and that socio-political critique is part of the educative function.

   

• Education is a transformational learning process and that it is dynamic, ongoing and developmental for all people at any age.

   

• The learning process should prepare students to fulfill their roles as educators with distinction, incorporating the values of scholarship, professional service and leadership for advocacy and change.

   

• Professional education incorporates students and faculty as colleagues in the learning process.

   

• The learning process should promote reflective practitioners who examine beliefs, values and demands of local and global citizenship.
