What future for education?

University of London International Programmes via Coursera

Overview

Through this course you will start to critically examine your own ideas about education, teaching and learning. The critique will be developed through engagement with theories and ideas developed through educational research. You will be encouraged to use these ideas to challenge or support your own ideas about education.

Each week we will focus on one key question, using video lectures, key readings and challenges to explore some commonplace notions about education. With the guidance of the course team, you will be asked to use these ideas to critically reflect on your own understandings and experience. By the end of the course, you will have developed a personal response to the main question: what is your preferred future for education?

    Pilar Reyes is taking this course right now, spending 2 hours a week on it and found the course difficulty to be easy.

    A very useful course for teachers, parents, and other people interested in the latest trends of education (learning, intelligence, good quality teaching, schools, government funding). Videos consist of interviews to former or current experienced teachers dedicated now to various fields of education. The lecturer is nice and a highly effective interviewer. Assignments are easy to complete and especially engaging.
