Our ability to learn and teach is part of what makes us human. It allows us to change not only ourselves, but also our organisations and societies. Quite simply, education can change the course of history. On this course you will study the role of education within societies and cultures, as well as how schools and other educational settings shape our lives. You’ll address different approaches to education. You’ll also examine the ways people learn across a wide range of educational institutions, both in the UK and beyond including primary schools, secondary schools, museums and charities. And you’ll examine how education, childhood, adolescence and lifelong learning interrelate.
Throughout your degree you will examine cutting-edge issues in educational theory, practice and policy, with reference to a range of national and international settings. You will discover topics such as education as an academic discipline, international education and learning, and teaching in the digital world. You will also explore developmental, moral and social issues in education. All this will be underpinned by the history, philosophy, psychology and sociology of education. |
