Information
Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung
This is a graduate seminar on education in Japan, designed to introduce you to key theories in the sociology of education and to important and new scholarship on the role of education in Japanese society. To examine the relationship between education and society, the course readings, lectures and activities will focus on racial, social class, gender, historical, organizational and cultural issues. The course looks at education from a sociological standpoint, with a particular focus on the hierarchical and stratified nature of school systems. The relationships of education to other social institutions such as family, economy and political system are examined. We look at the institution of education in a detailed light, from public institutions, such as kindergarten, elementary, junior, high schools or universities, to the expanding private sector, particularly in regards to supplementary education. We investigate how individual experiences (e.g. students, teachers, and the parents) affect education and its outcomes. Education can be studied from a macro- or micro perspective, with quantitative or qualitative methods. The course will expose you through the readings to a variance in methods and perspectives and angles for looking at Japanese educational aspects. We will pay attention to the specific changes Japanese education has been and is undergoing and the driving forces behind the changes. Topics covered in the course range from early childhood education up to university education, but also non-mainstream social groups, such as Burakumin, Koreans and transnational parents and their educational experiences in Japan are a focus.
