Description

A Student's Guide to Education Studies by Catherine A. Simon and Stephen Ward provides a comprehensive introduction to the world of education, encouraging students to challenge conventional views on learning and knowledge. This new edition explores five enduring themes: Policy and Politics, Global and Environmental Education, Knowledge and Learning, Childhood and Youth, and Professionalism and Employment. Organised around these themes, the book offers alternative perspectives on long-standing topics such as class, race, and gender, and features new chapters on the sociology of education, philosophy of education, inclusion, professionalism, and work-based learning. With its distinctive international focus, this updated edition reflects the latest research and thinking in the field. Suitable for undergraduate students making their first explorations into education, this guide provides a theoretical background for critical analysis of education policy and practice, along with summary points, discussion questions, and annotated suggestions for further reading.
