Global and Inclusive Education Issues (30 credits)
You will explore the changing world of education in the context of social, political, economic and cultural globalisation, especially in regard to how globally inclusive education has been positioned and promoted as a positive reaction to segregated schooling, inequality and prejudice. It reflects on the `nature' of international identity, both for teachers and students, and critically explores what `international' means, educationally, in this context. This module offers insights into many different aspects of inclusive education within a global policy discourse.
