Additional Course Info | Class Number: 2599 In our era of globalization, increased standardization of education, and perpetual discrimination, this course investigates the following key question: What does multicultural education mean today? We will investigate globalization, reflect on notions of power and privilege, critique understandings of difference, and examine the multi-faceted ways in which multicultural education is enacted in pedagogy, curriculum and educational organization. We will also examine the intersections between race, class, gender, sexuality, language, and citizenship status and try to assess their impact on teaching and learning. Fieldwork of two to three hours per week. Approach: Cross-Cultural Analysis (CC);, ; Fieldwork in a school setting is an essential component of this course. Accordingly, students are required to register for a field placement “lab-time.” “Lab-times” are offered Monday through Friday 9-1 pm. While the fieldwork requirement for this course is 2 hours, we ask for you to reserve a four-hour block one day per week to ensure that you have adequate time for transportation to and from your field site. If you are unable to set aside that time, we ask that you plan to take this course in a semester when you will be able. NOTE: If you are registering for two courses (e.g. EDUC 200 and EDUC 275), select the same lab time (e.g. Mondays 9-1 pm) for both, as one field placement can meet the requirements of two courses. If registering for three courses (EDUC 200, EDUC 275, and EDUC 266), register for two lab times (e.g. Mondays 9-1 pm; Tuesdays 9-1 pm) as two field placements will be required. Be sure to select a lab time, but if you have a conflict and are hoping for a different time fill out the form here: https://www.brynmawr.edu/education/fieldwork-lab-time-registration-form-educ-b200-educ-b260-and-educ-b266 Enrollment Limit: 22; Enrollment Criteria: Major/Minor/Concentration; Senior; Junior; Sophomore; |
