ANTHROPOLOGY AND EDUCATION

Catalog description

(Slashed with CULT 79575 ) Students explore the contributions that cultural and social anthropologists have made to the study of education broadly conceived, focusing particularly on studies addressing the interrelationships among education, culture and forms of social inequity. Through engaging in critical readings of classic and contemporary educational ethnographies, students explore the myriad ways in which "culture" has been theoretically conceptualized as well as the implications of those conceptualizations for educational inquiry and practice.
