पाठ्यक्रमबारे सारश

This program is designed to appeal to students seeking alternatives to more specialized or technical programs of study in education. It is designed to attract educators, leaders, and individuals with bachelor’s degrees who have broad interests in educational policy but who may not be professional educators. It anticipates that students pursuing this degree will come from a variety of professional backgrounds involving different forms of educational work such as media, private foundations, museums, community organizations, labor unions, higher education, K-12 schools, and others. It provides students the opportunity to study education, not only as schooling, but broadly as a dynamic cultural and political force that unfolds in a wide range of shifting and overlapping sites of learning. Students will consider education as a dynamic process that shapes social identities and social life as well as the learning of values and beliefs, all of which are central to how people make cognitive and emotional investments and act in the world. As such, education is a significant force in creating, maintaining, and challenging assumptions of neutrality and hierarchies of race, ethnicity, gender, class, and sexual difference.
