ED 503 General Foundations of Education in the U.S.


(3 credits)
This socio-cultural introduction to the educational studies is designed for secondary teachers. Ethnographic research, historical, and philosophical approaches are used to explore how youth cultures, institutional organization, disciplinary contexts, and categories of difference frame youth experiences and the enactment of curriculum. Students arrange their own field locations, where they observe formal and informal learning environments and analyze disciplinary learning.
