L12 Educ 102A First-Year Seminar: Metacognating Mario -- Learning and Video Games

Although we often associate education with school-based activity, human beings learn in multiple environments beyond the formal classroom. Video games, while often dismissed as frivolous entertainment, provide one such example of a significant experiential learning context: individual players develop skills in the pursuit of goals, collaborate with each other to advance their theorizing about the game's mechanics, and display deep engagement and persistence in the face of frustration despite a lack of extrinsic rewards. Among the questions encountered in this course will be the following: What kind of understanding is built through game play? How might games teach us about ourselves as learners? In what ways might the skills involved in learning to play a game transfer to learning in other contexts? What pedagogical lessons might teachers take from game designers? Throughout the course, readings and activities will promote the rigorous critical analysis of both games and theories of learning.

L12 Educ 102B First-Year Seminar: Improving Student Success Through Psychological Interventions

One of the most exciting transformations in the social sciences in recent years is the finding that brief psychological exercises can improve important student outcomes for months and years, such as raising school achievement and reducing inequality. These interventions help individuals flourish and help our society live up to its ideals. They address critical psychological questions that people have, like the following: Do people like me belong in this school? Can I learn math? When will I ever use what I am learning in class? In this seminar, we will learn about psychological interventions in education; how they work; how they can cause lasting benefits; their intellectual lineage; how they can be used, adapted, and scaled to address contemporary problems; and challenges and mistakes that can arise in doing so. In addition to learning from classic and contemporary research, students will design their very own intervention and workshop others' efforts. When students have completed this seminar, they will more fully understand the psychological aspect of educational problems and how this can be addressed through rigorous research.

L12 Educ 203C Introduction to Education: Social Inequality, Development, & Early Childhood Education

Education begins long before children are introduced to formal schooling, and factors both internal and external to schools influence children's education. An understanding of the social, political, and economic contexts of families and schools is essential to understanding how social factors impact individuals. Race, class, health, and place exert influence on individual achievement and opportunity throughout the life course. This course will examine such factors as they relate to early developmental outcomes, school readiness skills, later academic achievement, and success in schooling. Course readings and activities will examine the influence of families, neighborhoods, the built environment and health on early childhood development and education and will offer corresponding implications for education policy.

L12 Educ 203D Introduction to Education: Immigrants, Refugees, and English Learners in U.S. Schools

What is the distinction between immigrant, refugee, migrant, and newcomer students in schools? How are their needs similar, and how are they different? Although U.S. schools have historically served multilingual children, many have seen an increase in the racial, ethnic, and language backgrounds of the students they designate as English learners (ELs). As such, educators are still coming to understand how to best support this highly diverse group. In addition to clarifying distinctions between EL and student background classifications, this course will examine: federal, state, and local policies impacting immigrant and refugee student integration into schools, how school practices for several kinds of multilingual students vary, and how existing educational structures can better support designated EL students and their families.

L12 Educ 3885 The Mental Health Crisis in Higher Education

During the last decade, college campuses have seen unprecedented increases in the proportion of students suffering from mental health problems. Many institutions have responded by increasing the number of mental health counselors available in student health centers, making the accommodations at disability resource centers more robust, and providing safe spaces for students to process incidents and events that have triggered them. Are such interventions improving the well-being of today's students, or might they actually be further encumbering students' psychological health? This discussion-based course will explore arguments made on all sides of this provocative debate and examine research on the nature of today's college students and what resources and services most contribute to their psychological health and well-being. Enrollment is limited to 15 students. Prerequisite: at least 6 units of advanced home-based psychology courses.

L12 Educ 4511 Race, Ethnicity, and Culture: Critical Qualitative Understandings of Urban Education

This course examines educational institutions as spaces where children are asked to comply to the norms, expectations, and values of the culture of power. We will study how forces -- such as de facto segregation, the disproportionate hyper-disciplining of students, punitive school climates, and the devaluing of certain forms of cultural and social capital -- can contribute to cycles of social reproduction among the marginalized. To address such challenges, this course introduces sociocultural theories and critical qualitative inquiry methods as mechanisms by which urban educational institutions can be positively transformed. Specifically, restorative practices, cogenerative dialogues, and participatory/co-researcher models are explored as methods that honor the voices of marginalized stakeholders and lead to catalytic, transformational impact. Leaving this course, students will have an understanding of the inequitable terrain of urban education institutions as well as a repertoire of theories and methods to assist with the conducting of critically grounded, culturally responsive, humane, and transformative research. In addition to lectures, readings, discussions, films, and actual classroom footage, students will conduct a school experience project to practice using the theories and methods introduced in this course. Prerequisite: Junior standing or permission of instructor.

L12 Educ 462 Politics of Education

In this course, politics is interpreted broadly to include both formal policy-making processes and any situation in which people have to solve a problem or come to a decision. The purpose of this course is to explore the following processes: (1) how ideologies and power dynamics influence educational policies and decisions; (2) how educational policies and decisions translate into specific school programs and practices; (3) how specific programs and practices influence pedagogies, especially in the relationships among students, teachers, and knowledge pedagogies; (4) how these pedagogies impact student opportunities and outcomes; and (5) how student outcomes and opportunities reinforce ideologies and power dynamics. This course considers politics across time, space, and individuals, noting how historical, geographical, cultural, social, psychological, political, and economic contexts can shape the politics of education. In addition, as this course considers the relationship between politics and power, we explore how politics can manifest itself in ways that promote exclusion and subjugation or work toward the common good. Finally, after carefully examining the research on inequalities and inefficiencies resulting from the current politics of education, we will transition from problem identification (i.e., "What went wrong?") to problem solution (i.e., "Where do we go from here?").

L12 Educ 4621 The Political Economy of Urban Education

Defining a political economy of urban education involves the examination of power and wealth and the manner in which they operate in urban settings. It requires analysis of the larger urban social and economic context and consideration of historical forces that have brought the schools to their present state. In this course, we consider various political and economic factors that have influenced and shaped urban education in the United States, drawing upon the extant literature on urban education and related social science disciplines to characterize and discuss them. A particular focus of this course is on the dynamic interrelationships among the political economy, urban education and social stratification.
