Description

This course utilises the student's internship experiences as a platform to explore the ethical, political and pedagogical dilemmas entailed in the School. Students will utilise a range of contemporary perspectives to explore philosophical, sociological and political dilemmas and conflicts in the context of education. Perspectives include Althusser's ideological state apparatuses, Gidden's Structuration; Haberma's communicative action; and Foucault's notion of discourse and difference.
