Pittsburgh on the Move is a School of Education, community-wide initiative to improve the health of individuals in our region. The focus is on small, realistic changes to eating habits and physical activity. Collaborating with UPMC Health Plan and KDKA-TV, the goal is to create a sustainable, area-wide intervention to reduce risk of chronic disease and to improve the health-related quality of life.

The University of Pittsburgh Physical Education Department offers non-credit courses to the community each semester. The project offers instruction in aquatics, fitness, and lifetime carry-over activities. Classes are offered as per the time schedule at Trees Hall on the University of Pittsburgh Campus.

The Curriculum Center (CC) located in 5131 Wesley W. Posvar Hall serves as an education support facility within the School of Education and its surrounding community. The Curriculum Center includes a library of curriculum and software materials, the Reading Clinic, a work area for students, and two computers for walk-in use. This facility was created to support the learning needs of students in the School of Education and educators in the schools. Through its Reading Clinic, the Curriculum Center provides services to those requesting diagnosis or instruction in the area of reading. In the Reading Clinic, university graduate students get first-hand experiences in assessment and instruction. Research that produces new knowledge about reading assessment and instruction is also conducted.

LEADERS was developed to help teachers address the needs of students who are at-risk for encountering difficulties in early reading. It is designed to provide intensive, stable professional development and ongoing, in-classroom support for teachers in schools serving high numbers of students who struggle to learn to read.

As the School receives job postings from other schools, businesses and organizations, we will add them to our Job Postings site.
