About the Course

Through this course you will start to critically examine your own ideas about education, teaching and learning. The critique will be developed through engagement with theories and ideas developed through educational research. You will be encouraged to use these ideas to challenge or support your own ideas about education. Each week we will focus on one key question, using video lectures, key readings and challenges to explore some commonplace notions about education. With the guidance of the course team, you will be asked to use these ideas to critically reflect on your own understandings and experience. By the end of the course, you will have developed a personal response to the main question: what is your preferred future for education?...

Very good course. I enjoyed it from the moment I started. Just one review, some of the talks were too long, and not very integrating. Try to create a better variety of different learning materials.

It is a very helpful course if you are interested in education. The lecturers all have professional backgrounds but they delivered the course in a friendly and explicit way. They asked open questions and wouldn't tell you the answer, but they inspired you on many aspects, which's very beneficial.

The content and dynamics of the course is something that I really liked because the reflective question seems fundamental to me in every order of things.

Thank you!

I am really commited with the future of education since I have children, this course gave me the opportunity to know more about education due to Interviewers with profesors, Tech Talks, teached me how to create a blog, etc.

Taking this course has been an interesting journey. My thoughts were challenged and I gained better perspectives of education. We can not rely on education ideologies that were fit for the 19th century and hope that education will benefit learners now and in the future.

This course make something interesting: to rescue the power of argumentation through isses on public good, by people who are not always experts. The lectures and interviews are awesome. The readings could improve a litlle bit.

It was a course designed to make you think about the topic rather than give you the answers. I really liked how open-ended it was. It gives you valuable inputs and create a possible conclusion for yourself.

Really enjoyed it!

The course is very well organized and structure of individual lessons provokes to think, relate to our own experiences to enhance understanding. The content is largely good and the discussions in the forum are enriching.

This course helped me to improve my knowledge about education. In what ways will education be involved in the future? I've learned not only how to modify the method but also the policy which I didn't have before.

Aprendes mucho sobre aspectos que quizás no sabias que estaban relacionados con la educación, te hace pensar más allá de tu zona de comfort y analizar desde el punto de vista de todos los involucrados

Very interesting to think that educational issues are visible in different parts of the world. That is why I believe that it is very important to think about education globally to act locally.

Very good. I enjoyed it a lot.

My classmate says that I turn lecture notes into music notes to learn lessons. So he learns by turning them into music. Interesting approach.
