Who are the key thinkers in education? What are the hot topics in education? Where will education go from here? The Routledge Companion to Educationpresents the most comprehensive, up-to-date guide available to the major topics and theories in education. Forty specially commissioned chapters, covering all aspects of education, introduce you to the key thinkers, events, ideas, research and issues that have shaped the field of education. Part one opens with an exploration of the aims and purposes of education. Part two introduces the key theories and thinkers that have established the history, sociology, philosophy, and psychology of education. Part three is devoted to how we organise education and the topics that attract much contemporary interest. Part four covers the central concepts and theories needed for a comprehensive understanding of learning and knowledge. The Routledge Companion to Educationpresents a succinct, detailed, authoritative overview of the main topics in education. Each chapter includes a descriptive introduction, an analysis of the key ideas and debates, the latest research and scholarship, exploration of how the issues will develop, key questions for research and carefully selected further reading to signpost you to important resources. This classic collection provides in one volume a picture of contemporary understanding of education, for every student and scholar serious about the study of education.
