Course Description In this course, we will explore the question of the actual and potential connections between democracy and education. Our focus of attention will be placed on a critical examination of democratic theory and its implications for the civic education roles and contributions of teachers, adult educators, community development practitioners, and community organizers. We will survey and deal critically with a range of competing conceptions of democracy, variously described as classical, republican, liberal, radical, marxist, neomarxist, pragmatist, feminist, populist, pluralist, postmodern, and/or participatory. Using narrative inquiry as a means for illuminating and interpreting contemporary practice, we will analyze the implications of different conceptions of democracy for the practical work of civic education.

Democracy and education.

Closing of the American Mind

A definite idea of the university is the product of the times. As university s social being has been changeable, its-idea must be changed as time goes on. Futuristic universities must be re-classified: one is so-called brand-name university, uses of which are to contribute knowledge; another so-called mass-provider university, uses of which are provide trained personnel, namely, to train learned, skilled and numerous workers. It is the key to understand the uses of university when we discuss the ideas of university.

Becoming a teacher: the thoughts of undergraduates training to work in Primary Education and ideas for their university education

INTRODUCTION. This work focuses on precisely the group of people that is training to become a teacher, it specifically focuses on people that are studying the Bachelor Degree in in Primary Education in one of the Catalan universities. We present the results that we have obtained when we asked why they wanted to be teachers and what makes a good teacher, taking into account some considerations for teacher training at the university today are reflected. METHOD . Quantitative methodology is used by a self-administered questionnaire in a representative sample recoded with open questions afterwards. RESULTS . From investigations increased incidence, we have built three main categories. The first one is the personal and authentic teacher, that is the teacher that has an influence on his students because of his character or personality; the second one is the teacher transmitter of stories, and he is understood as the teacher that explains the lessons in a such way that the lesson is memorable; and the third one is teacher motivator for learning, the teacher that is able to organize spaces and times where students get to learn with some ease and enthusiasm. The findings offer important differences between these categories, and according to variables such as the academic year students enrolled, gender and type of university where they study. DISCUSSION . The results extol above all the personal and authentic teacher, which leaves a mark on his character or way of being. This evidence, along with others that complement, can offer some considerations for the university training of future teachers.

Ethics and Citizenship education has become the focus of considerable debate since the launch of the European Higher Education Area. That this is the case is interesting, as it is a type of education that forms part of the educational mission of universities, as its history plainly demonstrates. Ethics and Citizenship education cannot be analysed solely in terms of its pedagogical requirements, the skills and competencies that it seeks to develop, or the type of students and professionals that the world needs today. Its success also requires that we explore what university lecturers understand by this type of education, the context it currently finds itself in, and how students perceive such an education. This paper presents a case study conducted on university lecturers in Education, Philosophy and Humanities at several European institutions.

University Lecturers’ Conceptions of Ethics and Citizenship Education in the European Higher Education Area: a Case Study

La formacio etica i per a la ciutadania ha estat objecte de debat des de la implantacio de l'espai europeu d'ensenyament superior. Es interessant que sigui aixi, ja que es tracta d'un tipus de formacio que forma part de la missio formativa de la universitat, tal com la seva historia s'ha encarregat de demostrar-nos. Aquest tipus de formacio no es pot analitzar nomes des de la pedagogia que requereix, les competencies que s'han de fomentar o el tipus d'estudiants i professionals que la contemporaneitat necessita. El seu bon desenvolupament tambe ha d'endinsar-se en que es el que enten el professor universitari per aquesta formacio, en quin estat pensa que esta i com concep els seus estudiants amb referencia a aquest tema. Aquest treball presenta l'estudi del cas de professors de diferents universitats europees de les arees d'educacio, filosofia i humanitats.
