FDED 211 - The School and Society
Semester Hours: 3
Fall, Spring
The school is a societal institution created specifically for the purpose of
education. The school is both shaped by societal factors and, in turn, has impact
upon the society. Contemporary schools for children and adolescents, as well as
institutions of higher education for adults in the United States, are impacted
by the political and governmental system of the country; the economy; patterns
of social stratification; the multicultural diversity within the population. The
school also interacts with other societal institutions concerned with education:
museums, libraries, religious institutions, health care institutions, the work
place in the community, as well as the family.
