EAGSR 8115 Theoretical Perspectives

In this seminar, participants examine theoretical approaches over the last few centuries. Through literature that investigates various psychological, sociocultural, developmental, linguistic, embodied, multimodal, critical, methodological, and interdisciplinary lenses , this course introduces students to the academic discourse of self as learner, educator, and researcher. Students will explore theoretical perspectives of the self, community, and the world; the pursuit of equity and justice; and their relationship to ethical teaching, learning, and research. Participants begin to identify theories that resonate with them and apply theoretical elements toward their doctoral benchmark papers.
