Drawing together international perspectives and disciplinary
sub-fields of comparative and global social policy, this book
provides an insightful guide for educators and academics embarking
on or revisiting the design and teaching of classes, courses and
programmes in and around social and public policy. Teaching Social
Policy captures the multi-disciplinary and multi-layered scope of
social policy, exploring how this enables versatility in teaching
and extends opportunities to expand knowledge and skills that may
otherwise remain untapped. Chapters present ideas and examples of
teaching activities to support learning in social policy, with a
specific focus on approaches and tools to decolonise the social
policy curricula. Serving as a practical guide for scholars
teaching social policy, the book maps the terrain of student
learning and explores novel ideas for teaching within the context
of contemporary challenges facing higher education. Offering ideas,
reflections and guidance on the challenges and benefits of
internationalising and decolonising the curriculum, this dynamic
book will be an invaluable resource for higher education educators,
early career academics and course designers with an interest in
social policy, social administration, sociology and public policy.
