The development of student
knowledge, attitudes, and skills necessary to become
productive and contributing citizens and lifelong learners
is the primary goal for the program. Since learning
does not proceed at the same rate and in the same manner
in every individual, creative teaching-learning methods
should be utilized to meet individual needs and to
provide the experience necessary for learning.
