Course content

The course contains teaching in key social science courses with relevance for teaching citizenship, among other things; democracy, political participation, welfare, modern media, political / social inclusion and exclusion, migration, equality and the meanings of gender. The teaching in SAM1020 will help to provide students with theoretical and empirical knowledge on the topic of citizenship in school. Emphasis will also be placed on students using the research literature in the course to shed light on experiences they themselves bring with them from the internship periods in the school this semester.

Learning outcome

Knowledge goals - the student must:

  • acquire research-based knowledge that will provide a basis for developing students in the school for citizenship through engagement, social and political participation

Skills goals - students should be able to:

  • develop skills in academic writing and social science reflection by reading research literature to problematize and discuss current issues of citizenship education.

Learning methods and activities
