Keele University - Study online

100% online Comparative Education

  • 15 credits

This module enables you to understand and explain the differences in educational policy and practice across a selection of countries. It focuses on comparisons in terms of governance, roles and responsibilities, and in terms of balances between the imperatives of competition, striving to maintain standards and being inclusive. The module develops your comparative analysis skills using a range of sources including research, statistics, policy documents, personal experience or accounts and themed discussion. It illustrates how roles and responsibilities among educational stakeholders vary across countries and regions according to history, and to political and economic priorities. You will explore theoretically productive questions of other education systems on the basis of critical reflection on your own context.
