EDU2311: Schools in Context
This unit introduces students to the larger social context of education. Students will examine the relationship between education and the larger society; the aims of education and the ways these aims are expressed through policy and practice; and issues related to social division. Sociological, philosophical and political perspectives are used to explore how social justice relates to curriculum and classroom practices. The unit culminates in the development of a research paper which analyses a sociological or political aspect of education.
