5 George Mason University Masters of Science (MS) in Educational Psychology Program Dispositions The Educational Psychology program offers a Master of Science degree in Educational Psychology. The program is designed to offer individuals the opportunity to: (a) apply principles of learning, cognition and motivation to vital problems in the area of education; (b) develop a solid understanding of research, assessment, and evaluation methodologies; and (c) develop an analytical and scholarly approach to critically assessing theoretical perspectives, research, and practice within and across content domains. The MS in Educational Psychology program is not a certificate or licensure program, nor does it prepare individuals to be school psychologists or school counselors. Educational psychologists work in a variety of contexts including public schools, colleges and universities, testing and assessment organizations, state and federal government agencies, research organizations, and informal learning environments (e.g., museums). In addition, to the dispositions adopted by the Graduate School of Education, candidates for the MS in Educational Psychology program are assessed on the following: I. Commitment to the field of Educational Psychology a. Excellence in applying research to teaching, learning, and assessment b. Contribute to the field of Educational Psychology II. Commitment to ethical research with humans subjects a. Respect for persons. Individuals should be treated as autonomous agents; Persons with diminished autonomy are entitled to additional protections b. Beneficence. Do no harm; Maximize possible benefits and minimize possible harms c. Justice. Individuals and groups are treated fairly and equitably in terms of bearing the burdens and receiving the benefits of research. III. Commitment to empirical inquiry a. Appreciate and integrate multiple theoretical and methodological perspectives b. Commitment to using research-based evidence to inform educational decisions c. Value methodological rigor in research IV. Commitment to the Learner-Centered Principles of the American Psychological Association (APA) a. Cognitive and Metacognitive Factors i. Nature of the learning process. The learning of complex subject matter is most effective when it is an intentional process of constructing meaning from information and experience. ii. Goals of the learning process. The successful learner, over time and with support and instructional guidance, can create meaningful, coherent representations of knowledge. iii. Construction of knowledge. The successful learner can link new information with existing knowledge in meaningful ways. iv. Strategic thinking. The successful learner can create and use a repertoire of thinking and reasoning strategies to achieve complex learning goals. v. Thinking about thinking. Higher order strategies for selecting and monitoring mental operations facilitate creative and critical thinking. vi. Context of learning. Learning is influenced by environmental factors, including culture, technology, and instructional practices. b. Motivational and Affective Factors i. Motivational and emotional influences on learning. What and how much is learned is influenced by the learner's motivation. Motivation to learn, in turn, is influenced by the individual's emotional states, beliefs, interests and goals, and habits of thinking. ii. Intrinsic motivation to learn. The learner's creativity, higher order thinking, and natural curiosity all contribute to motivation to learn. Intrinsic motivation is stimulated by tasks of optimal novelty and difficulty relevant to personal interests, and providing for personal choice of control. Updated 4/26/10 5

6 iii. Effects of motivation and effort. Acquisition of complex knowledge and skills requires extended learner effort and guided practice. c. Developmental and Social Factors i. Developmental influences on learning. As individuals develop, there are different opportunities and constraints for learning. Learning is most effective when differential development within and across physical, intellectual, emotional, and social domains is taken into account. ii. Social influences on learning. Learning is influenced by social interactions, interpersonal relations, and communication with others. d. Individual Differences Factors i. Individual differences in learning. Learners have different strategies, approaches, and capabilities for learning that are a function of prior experience and heredity. ii. Learning and diversity. Learning is most effective when differences in learners' linguistic, cultural, and social backgrounds are taken into account. iii. Standards and assessment. Setting appropriately high and challenging standards and assessing the learner as well as learning progress including diagnostic, process, and outcome assessment are integral parts of the learning process. I understand my responsibility to develop and maintain professional behaviors and dispositions that are associated with professionals in educational psychology. I also understand that my development toward the acquisition of such professional dispositions as well as the Program Standards and CEHD Core Values will be part of the Educational Psychology assessment process.
