The Master of Arts degree in Teaching and Learning (M.A.T.L.)
degree program has been designed by Nova Southeastern
University in cooperation with SkyLight to meet the needs
of busy classroom practitioners by linking theory to best
practices in the classroom. As you learn from today's
leading educational theorists, master teachers will model
and reflect on best practice strategies that you can begin
to implement and develop as part of your daily classroom
repertoire.
M.A.T.L. degree program is composed of integrated curricular
blocks, each consisting of six graduate credit hours.
Each block contains multi-dimensional modules that cover
specific academic subject areas. Course concepts are
reinforced by combining peer interaction, best practice
videos and active applications in a problem-based learning
framework. Video and online distance education technologies
are used to create a productive and enriching educational
experience for each participant.
