A NEW ACADEMIC PARTNERSHIP
Union Institute & University has partnered with TIES (The Institute for Educational Studies) to offer a Master of Education with a major in Integrative Learning. The program is appropriate for educators exploring progressive and innovative approaches to education. Integrative Learning allows faculty and students to build connections not only within the classroom but outside the classroom as well.
All coursework is online and presented through a series of 18 sequenced seminars, typically spanning two weeks. Learners explore books, articles, videos and other media in preparation for online dialogues with faculty and fellow students. These seminars offer adult learners a personalized, self-directed, and discovery-based approach contextualized by integrative learning, participating when it best suits their personal schedules.

What is Integrative Learning?
Integrative learning is an approach where the learner brings together prior knowledge and experiences. By doing this, learners draw on their skills and apply them to new experiences at a more complex level. It applies multiple ways of knowing concepts and experiences and empowers participants to recognize and solve problems, address existing questions and ask new ones in more comprehensive ways. Students learn to make connections that combine and explore different perspectives.
