EDLE 6310 - Critical Voice, Design, Analysis Educational Policy

Credit(s): 3

This doctoral course focuses on the identification and analysis of policy and the political influences that shape the direction of education. Attention is given to examining models of policy design used to guide policy development and implementation and to political and cultural ideologies that influence policy on a local, state, and national level. Alternative models and theories of policy analysis will be explored in relation to examining the impact of policy on education. Social capital, feminism, institutional, and social justice issues will help shape the various lenses used in the study of educational policy and the political dynamics of American education.
