Social and Cultural Studies in Education

This course examines the meaning and study of culture through a sociological lens. The first goal of this course is to provide a solid, introductory grounding in some of the many ways in which the term culture has been used in the study of societies. The second goal is to raise questions about the relationship between culture and structures and to provide analytical tools to understand institutions (like schools) as sites of culture-building and cultural struggle.
