ECE200 History and Philosophies of Education
In this course we have chosen to emphasize what we consider the key challenge for professionals in the twenty-first century—responding to multiple perspectives in a changing world. By multiple perspectives we mean educators must consider, reflect, and respond to divergent ideas drawn from different disciplines of study, different points of view, different experiences, different contexts, and different voices. Students come to this course with perspectives of their own based on unique personal experiences, cultures, and communities. During this course, they will be exposed to other perspectives, values, cultures, and points of view. This course helps analyze these divergent perspectives through academic disciplines including history, philosophy, politics, sociology, and the law. This course also presents a broad perspective of the changing world with a view to a global economy and global citizenship.
