Sociology
of Education
|
| Three semester hours |
| This
course will introduce the student to sociological perspectives on
the institution of education in societies and the educational organizations
which this institution generates. Several sociological-theoretical
perspectives will be used to analyze this institution and its consequent
organizations. The structure, functions, and processes of education
will be reviewed. Different societies will be compared with respect
to these. It is anticipated that the student will be able to use sociological
theory, research methods, data, and concepts to analyze educational
organizations to introduce appropriate interventions, and to evaluate
the impact of such interventions. The course should be particularly
helpful to individuals expecting to work with, and in, educational
organizations. However, it should also be valuable to parents and
citizens interested in the importance of education in society, community,
and individually. |
