This semester, GHC began hosting a new master’s education program in Early Childhood Education. The program is taught by the University of West Georgia on the Floyd campus of GHC.
The program is designed to give students and teachers the opportunity to gain a master’s degree in education without having to travel to Carrollton.
According to Dr. Donna Harkins, associate professor of curriculum at West Georgia, the program is available to qualified students and teachers who have a bachelor’s degree in education as well as a clear and renewable T-4 certificate.
Harkins said, “We are very pleased to offer our classes both for our graduates and teachers in the area at GHC.”
This semester, two classes are being offered: Classroom Management for Early Grades and P-5 School Curriculum. Next semester three other classes will become available including: Reading, Interpreting and Applying Research; Investigating Methods and Materials in Mathematics; and Reading Theory Development and Practices.
Students and teachers who wish to apply for the program must do so through West Georgia by contacting the West Georgia office of Early Childhood Education at 678-839-6559, or by emailing Harkins at [email protected]
