Kursinnehåll
The purpose of the course is for the student to develop a critical understanding of education as a project of formation. Furthermore, the course aims to deepen students’ understanding of education as a complex process of personal change and interpersonal influence. The course also aims to deepen students’ knowledge of academic genres within educational theory.
The course asks questions such as, “What is formation?”, “Who is formed, and by whom?” and “Why are we educated?”. The course provides an introduction to historical and contemporary understandings of formation through education and fundamental ideas about formation through education will be discussed and challenged. The course will critically examine established educational aims such as citizenship, democracy, personal autonomy and freedom. In addition, academic reading and writing will be explored as a central part of the methodology of educational theory.
