Abstract

This syllabus is for a course in educational studies, a required course for master’s-level students and an elective for doctoral students. The course has two topical purposes within the curriculum in addition to the general purpose of encouraging processes of thinking and writing. In outlining the aims of the instructor and including one student's perspective, the syllabus functions as a tool for generating a voice rather than establishing expectations.
