This course is designed to provide students with the knowledge, skills, and dispositions needed to interpret the meaning of education and school in local, global, international, and intercultural contexts and address emerging issues from multiple perspectives. The study of cultural and social foundations of education is vital and will help educators to examine and explain education within differing contexts, the impact of teacher value orientation and education origins, major influences, and consequences. This course will provide preservice educators with knowledge, skills, and attitudes to be sensitive to individual and cultural differences and assist them in becoming effective educators of global education, and, responsible citizens of the USA and the world. This course requires a 30 hour field-based experience in an approved educational setting.
