INED 7769: Immigration, Policy, and Global/Local Issues in TESOL

3 Credit Hours
This course explores key issues and theories in immigration/migration, refugee education, and other international/global issues and trends as they relate to TESOL, including postcolonial and decolonizing approaches to language education. This course considers the historical and theoretical underpinnings of the fields of TESOL, critically examining and questioning practices that have upheld unjust outcomes for learners and particular communities. Candidates engage their own reflection and subjectivities as they deepen their own pedagogies and praxis as TESOL experts in particular cultural and geographic contexts.
