This course is an introduction to current issues in the sociology of
education. In this class, we will look at the structure, practices,
content, and outcomes of schooling, in light of their relationships
to the wider society in which schools are situated. Students will
examine the link between schools and societal stratification,
discuss the outcomes of schooling and how these outcomes are
produced, and consider sociological perspectives on contemporary
education reform.
