EDUC 3109 - SOCIAL CONTEXT OF URBAN EDUCATION
Credits: 3.0
Examines Urban Education with an emphasis on social context (e.g. red lining, gentrification, theories of home) and how communities are working toward empowering their respective neighborhoods. This course draws its theoretical and social action foundation from a spatial justice lens. As such, geography and space are sites of struggle and opportunity. Unjust geographies can contribute to language, policies, research, pedagogical constructs, and narratives that impact Urban Education.
