EDGE 343 - Globalization and Education


Credits: (3)
Students will examine the impact of immigration on children’s cognitive, emotional, and linguistic development in migrant and receiving communities. Through this comparative approach students will be invited to reflect anew, from international perspectives, on the effects of globalization on U.S. educational policies and on teacher-student relations in U.S. classrooms with the hope of developing global consciousness. The course will acquaint students with the differences and similarities between multicultural perspectives and approaches to educating diverse populations in the dawning century; and will empower students to critique current educational developments in Latin America, Africa, Europe and the United States in light of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and Catholic social teaching. This course satisfies the non-west core requirement. (Fall & Spring) (Fall and Spring)
