PSCI 326 - Educational Policy In America

Institution:

Northeastern Illinois University

Subject:

Political Science

Description:

This course examines the politics and policies of education. Education policy encompasses the basic interests and values of society. But in a pluralistic society such as the United States, there is often deep disagreement over those values. Such is the case with education. This course will focus on this struggle with an aim to demonstrate that educational policy is never really about education per se but about politics and struggle over specific interests.
