Through this module, the sociology of education, a subject that is not taught in secondary school, you will acquire a very important  intellectual asset for your future teaching career. It is the only  subject that  can give you a better  grasp of the overall education  process and the meaning  of teaching practices, and raise your awareness of the imperatives of social dynamics. However, we must not forget that a truly professional understanding of the education process also requires the acquisition of scientific knowledge from related disciplines such as psychology, philosophy,  history, statistics, and so on.
