(Radio Iowa) – The University of Northern Iowa is implementing a new curriculum for its teaching students this fall. Associate Dean Benjamin Forsyth says the curriculum is designed to better prepare students to teach in a changing classroom. One of the biggest changes will be improving teaching programs for English language learners .

Forsyth says the changes could also anticipate how students and educators are using A-I in the classroom.

More than 25-hundred undergrad and graduate students at U-N-I, or about one quarter of them, are studying education.
