An introduction to the changing social and cultural contexts of education. What changes are afoot today in workplaces, civic life and everyday community life? What are their implications for education? Examines the possible impacts of contemporary social transformations on teaching and learning - including in the areas of technology, media, globalization, diversity, changing forms of work in the 'knowledge society', and, in these contexts, changing learner needs and sensibilities. Contrasts canonical and classical theories and practices of education with new and emerging educational institutions and pedagogies.

4 graduate hours only. Prerequisite: Acceptance into the Master of Education with an emphasis on New Learning and New Literacies program.
