UNDERGRADUATE SEMINAR IN EDUCATION 1

概要

In this seminar, we will deepen our understanding of comparative education research. Students will familiarize themselves with a range of theories in comparative education and learn to apply them through critical reviews of research papers. The overall goal is to understand the nature of academic research and writing, and to develop their own research question. Students will write and present an argumentative paper on their weekly readings, and active discussion will follow. At the end of the semester, they will submit a research / project proposal for the final year. Possibly, we will have some COIL sessions with an overseas university.
