Description
The Curriculum and Instruction specialization of the Doctor of Education in Educational Leadership program will prepare learners to become instructional leaders who will strategically manage and lead processes related to curriculum, instruction, and assessment. Graduates will demonstrate both practical and scholarly knowledge in their use of analytical, critical, and innovative thinking to improve the performance of educational institutions. Historically, education has been a field of constant evolution and debate, with the pull of philosophical, cultural, and political influences felt throughout the industry. As such, contemporary educators face challenges unlike those faced by their predecessors: Educational leaders must design and facilitate learning in culturally diverse classrooms; manage the needs of multiple stakeholders; develop their classrooms, schools, and systems effectively and efficiently in the face of severe funding pressures; address the demands of regulatory bodies; and meet the outcomes established by the greater educational community. As the education system undergoes these radical changes, there has been a drastic increase in the need for leaders who are capable of designing innovative curricular models in their institutions and of consistently improving their students’ outcomes.

The Curriculum and Instruction specialization of the Doctor of Education in Educational Leadership program is offered by University of Phoenix to enable leaders to affect these high levels of performance through applied scholarship, rigorous analysis, and comprehensive evaluation methodology. The Curriculum and Instruction specialization is consistent with the University’s mission to educate working adults to achieve their professional goals and to improve the quality of education in their communities. The program is designed to emphasize curricular leadership and to focus on applied research that improves instruction and educational outcomes.
