2024년 제2회 해외석학 초청 세미나

(YIER Special Lecture Series)

 

▶일시: 2024년 4월 25일 목요일 11:30-12:30

▶장소: 연세대학교 교육과학관 406호

▶강연자: Jeffrey R. Henig

▶주제: Why Politics Matter in Education

▶초록: In my talk with you I’m going to usethe example of the tradition of localism in the  United States and how it has evolved over the past 120 years. I’ll start with a brief outline of the ideas and institutions that dominated American education for most of the 20thCentury.  Then I’ll discuss (three? Four?) broad challenges to that tradition ( these are tktk). While these challenges were often framed as being apolitical—new ideas about how to make education better—these movements were political in nature as well: they provided advantages to some groups at the expense of others and at least some of those pushing the changes recognized and were motivated by that goal rather than abstract principles or compelling evidence. I’ll suggest that some of the changes that have come about may have beneficial aspects, but that these are linked to possible dangers.  And I’ll end by suggesting that students of education and education policy—in addition to learning about good practice and empirical policy evaluation--need to understand—and to some extent master—the political nature of their enterprise rather than close their eyes.
