Desc:This particular section examines schools as social institutions that reflect the social, economic and political values of the culture of power. Utilizing sociocultural theory, we will deeply interrogate whether schooling is in fact a means for social mobility for all students, particularly those most marginalized by society. We will also examine themes such as the impact of resource access on teaching and learning experiences, how poverty and race shape educational opportunity, and the ways in which school and classroom interactions contribute to students' identity formation. Lecture, readings, and discussion are supplemented by film, actual classroom footage and visits to schools.

Home/Ident

A course may be either a “Home” course or an “Ident” course.

A “Home” course is a course that is created, maintained and “owned” by one academic department (aka the “Home” department). The “Home” department is primarily responsible for the decision making and logistical support for the course and instructor.

An “Ident” course is the exact same course as the “Home” (i.e. same instructor, same class time, etc), but is simply being offered to students through another department for purposes of registering under a different department and course number.

Students should, whenever possible, register for their courses under the department number toward which they intend to count the course. For example, an AFAS major should register for the course "Africa: Peoples and Cultures" under its Ident number, L90 306B, whereas an Anthropology major should register for the same course under its Home number, L48 306B.
