As prospective mathematics teachers proceed into their second major teaching practicum, they increase their awareness of how students are genuinely different and how these differences can be addressed. They begin to create a foundation for their work that includes student variation and uniqueness as a natural phenomenon. Focusing on cognitive styles, social-emotional behaviors, gender identification, cultural variation and position in the group, student teachers acquire a variety of approaches and techniques which enable them to define the range of learners in the mathematics classroom and to try out different methods for teaching mathematics content which are tailored to the unique needs of their students. This comprehensive, integrated view of learners embraces students with special needs, including gifted adolescents, those that are intellectually or physically challenged, and English language learners.

NPM 615/LECT/1-2026/SPRING/01 - Human Resource Mgmt in Nonprofit Orgs

Course Description

It is often argued that the most important asset any organization has is its employees. In this course, we take a deep dive into just that—all the people who work together to make nonprofits a success. This ranges from the board of directors who oversee the organization’s core mission, to the managers who develop its strategic plans, to the employees who manage the finances, to the volunteers who carry out that core mission. Managing these human resources properly is crucial to any nonprofit organization’s success.

 This course will cover a wide range of topics in human resources management in the nonprofit sector. We will explore the role and importance of human resources management in both government and nonprofit organizations. We will examine EEOC compliance, affirmative action, diversity management, and the role of the board of directors in compliance.

 We also walk through job analysis and assessment as well as ways that nonprofits recruit, select, train, develop, and compensate employees. Since much of a nonprofit’s work is not completed by employees, we will also review the role of volunteers and volunteer management programs in nonprofits.
