Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

Objectives:
_ To examine methodological and theoretical prerequisites on the basis of which social and cultural anthropology deals with 'education' on an inter/national level.
_ To develop a basic understanding of anthropological requirements for ethnological concepts of educational research.
_ Getting to know ethnological concepts of education, both in terms of objectives and didactics.
_ To grasp the specific relevance of the change of perspective in educational anthropological research.

Course content
The course focuses on the introduction to anthropological educational research on an international level. Building on the authoritative work in this field of research, educational anthropology deals with both formal and informal upbringing and education in the context of identity and change. A central concern is to enable a change of perspective, i.e. not only to document culturally diverse educational contexts, but also to understand them and make them transculturally applicable in a globalised educational situation.
An important component of the lecture is to familiarise students with the practice of anthropological educational research, which is ensured through the presentation of case studies and guest lectures.
