A&S 231 Anthropology of Education

This class examines education, broadly conceived, in various locations around the world. Topics include race and diversity, citizenship, colonialism, classroom power relations, planning and administration, globalization, and gender. The course also considers educational venues as "field sites" for conducting ethnography, and asks students to employ a transnational perspective in order to understand how changes here in the U.S. impact other parts of the world, and vice versa.
