A comprehensive introduction to the historical, sociological, and philosophical foundations of education. This course will require students to examine the social purposes of education in historical and contemporary contexts; engage students in the study of education through the academic disciplines of sociology, history, and philosophy; examine the significance of social differences (class, culture, race/ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, religion) for education; develop and express a personal philosophy of education; and examine the relationship of schooling to democratic practices and principles. Field visits to area schools will occur throughout the semester to enable students to experience an educational setting first-hand and explore career options as well.
