Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

Based on recent research, this seminar will explore how we can better understand the relationship between nationalism and education, in both senses: To what extent do we need to consider issues of nation-building and nationalism for understanding the emergence and shaping of educational systems, and to what extent do different educational systems inform our theoretical understanding of nationalism.

Assessment and permitted materials

Mid-semester: mandatory, well-prepared reflective paper (abt. 2 pages) concerning the knowledge and questions from the class so far. This will account for 20% of the points that can be earned in the course (max. 4 points).
End-of-Semester: there will be a test with 4 open questions. In each of the questions you can score 4 points, so the maximum number is 16.
