Specialize with concentrations in Science and Environmental Education, Arts and Humanities, or Holistic Special Education. Take your students to higher levels without teaching to the test Teaching to the test has become prevalent in our nation’s schools due to No Child Left Behind. Yet studies show that the methods our graduates use – developmentally appropriate teaching, thematically focused pedagogy, integrated curriculum and placed-based learning – are the most effective ways to promote student success and achievement, including learning that is measured on standardized tests. Earn teacher certification that travels with you Not only will you learn alongside students from across the country, with myriad backgrounds and experiences, but earning your teacher certification here in New Hampshire gives you access to an interstate teacher certification association agreement, paving your way to certification in 42 other states. Learn from faculty blazing a trail in progressive education Our faculty don’t live in the ivory tower. They are recognized as national educational leaders, thinkers, and trainers. They work with educators across the country and bring this current, practical insight home to their students at Antioch University New England.
