EDUC 014F. First-Year Seminar: Pedagogy and Power: An Introduction to Education

Schools are complex social institutions. Within schools, inequalities can be maintained or challenged as children and educators negotiate the historical, political, social, and economic realities of the nation. This course explores major questions in educational policy, theory, and practice. Students read material from multiple disciplines, write, discuss, and complete fieldwork in area schools as an introduction to the interdisciplinary field of educational studies.
