You will learn ethnographic research methods and how to apply them in school and community settings. The curriculum examines how race, gender, language, and class intersect inside educational institutions. You will also explore comparative education across cultures and analyze how globalization shapes schooling worldwide. By the end, you will be equipped to design culturally responsive programs, conduct practitioner inquiry, and translate research into meaningful educational practice.
