Teaching as Family Life Educators in Collegiate Settings: The Application of Family Science Theories from Systemic and Chronological Perspectives
Family Science Review, v28 n2 2024
Family Science is an exciting field which offers a multitude of career pathways, including Family Life Educator (FLE) and the Certified Family Life Educator (CFLE) credential. In this article, I will discuss how, as a Family Life Educator in a university setting, I employ Bronfenbrenner's bioecological model of human development (Bronfenbrenner & Morris, 2006), Elder's (1998) life course perspective, and the concept of intersectionality in teaching family science courses. The article will conclude with discussions of the strengths, limitations, and lessons learned.
