by

This podcast includes interviews between Dr. Melanie Ní Dhuinn, an Assistant Professor in Teacher Education in Trinity College Dublin and leading researchers, academics, school principals, social justice activists, teachers and policy makers as they talk about the Sociology of Education in Initial Teacher Education and how it looks in day to day reality in its many forms and guises. The podcast has been developed as a resource to support student teachers and others working in Initial Teacher Education to try and make sense of and demystify some of the abstract and dense sociological theories and recognise them in real-time in practice. The podcast covers different Sociological Perspectives, Exploring LGBTQ+ educational experiences, Social Justice, Equity, Equality & Access, Disability and Inclusion, Cultural Capital, Values, Beliefs, Global Citizenship, The Family and the School and more.
