The general purpose of the English Education curriculum is to provide a program which broadens students’ knowledge and gives them a firm Christian foundation. The general core in the curriculum gives students experiences in areas in addition to English and teaches them a Christian philosophy and worldview. Students take courses in communication skills, humanities, history and the behavioral sciences, science and mathematics, physical wellness, and Christian ministries in addition to courses in literature, old and new, western and non-western, and in writing both creatively and informatively. This knowledge base is then paired with pedagogy and experience to create knowing, sharing, and caring teachers for today’s classrooms.
