This program is specifically designed for already-licensed teachers who are currently using technology for instructional purposes and who wish to focus on larger curricular or year-long development plans. If you can devote 15-20 hours per week to your studies, you'll develop your curriculum and instructional expertise. The competency-based M.Ed. in Instructional Design will enhance your teaching talents and increase your technology integration skills using instructional design principles. The course of study integrates best practices in instructional design, technology integration, measurement and evaluation, and development of graduate-level research abilities.
Teachers with a master's degree earn on average over $10,000 more per year than those with only a bachelor's degree. This M.Ed. program is a great investment in your future. |
Western Governors University is the only university to have received simultaneous accreditation by four regional accrediting commissions. Currently, WGU's "home" accrediting commission is the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities, the same organization that accredits such leading institutions as the University of Washington, University of Oregon, University of Utah, Brigham Young University, and other public and private colleges. WGU is also nationally accredited by the Distance Education and Training Council (DETC). The WGU Teachers College is the first and only online provider of teacher education to receive accreditation from the National Council for the Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE).
