Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

In contemporary discussions and elaborates on education, the political and social dimensions of these discourses are often ignored or silenced. Hence, understanding the intellectual history of education enhances critical engagement.
This course will depart from the intellectual history of common sense to give an orientation on some historical, political, and social ideas on how to organize and structure society and how these idea(l)s have bearings on the foundations of education.
The students acquire knowledge about the connection between socializaSon processes and social structures and competencies for identifying, analyzing, and assessing educationally relevant social practices and educational intentions relevant to socializaSon in education and training
