Intersectional Perspectives in Educational Sciences


This course introduces intersectionality and its importance as an analytical framework in education and social science research. The course addresses how social movements and different theoretical schools nationally and internationally have contributed to the development of the concept intersectionality. The course also deals with questions about how social science and pedagogical research can be conducted with an intersectional focus and contribute to the field of International and comparative education.

The course contains compulsory instruction which combines lectures, workshops, discussions and group work to achieve the learning outcomes. Students are required to attend 80% of the compulsory course sessions. Student absences of more than 20% of the course sessions must be compensated via additional course assignments.
