Teaching Responsibilities:

 

In the autumn of 2010, I will teach two graduate courses:

 

1826 - Comparative Higher Education Tuesdays 1-4 PM

 

This course provides an overview of the field of comparative higher education, beginning with perspectives from the different civilizations which fostered higher learning in the pre-modern era. It considers theories from comparative education and disciplines such as   as history, sociology and anthropology as they apply to understanding higher education in a global context.  It also takes both a regional and a thematic approach in looking at higher education across different societies. Themes covered in the course include gender in higher education, curricular patterns across different societies, student issues and the relation of higher education to the state.

 

3810 – International Academic Relations Thursdays 5-8

 

This course begins with the literature of international relations to set the context for an examination of higher education's role and responsibilities within four distinct paradigms of world order. It then moves to  broad issues of knowledge, culture, and civilization in a global context.  This is followed by exploration of the following topics: the role of universities and colleges in international development; relations between higher education institutions and international organizations; scholar/student exchanges; academic freedom in a global context; and human rights and higher education.
