Within this class, students will learn about the relevance of social theory to social science research, and then apply it to a specific research proposal of their choosing. They will do this by a) reading some seminal theorists in educational research who center some form of inequality in their analyses (e.g., Gramsci, Bourdieu, Freire, and Foucault); b) explore how contemporary scholars apply these theorists; and c) develop their own research interest strongly contextualized within a theoretical framework of their choosing. While the focus of the paper is theory, the application of that theory should be in an educational environment or surrounding an educational issue.
