This course examines education through historical, philosophical, socio/cultural, and political/economic lenses. We explore the power of education to transform lives, and the ways in which it can work to reproduce social inequality and oppression--within the U.S. and globally. The course introduces students to the core framework of the education studies program that entails an expansive view of education as a social and political process embedded throughout our lived experiences. May not be taken pass/fail.
