Social sciences in higher education

Bruen, Jennifer and Grammes, Tilman (2014) Social sciences in higher education. Journal of Social Science Education, 13 (2). pp. 1-16.

Abstract
Specialized journals examine the teaching and learning of the social sciences in Higher Education . These include, for example, the highly regarded Teaching Sociology, or, more recently the Journal of Political Science Education, Journal of Legal Education and International Journal of Pluralism and Economics Education, to name but a few. These journals capture a significant amount of knowledge and experience. However, there is little coherence in terms of research and a lack of a well-developed academic sub-discipline around Higher Education in the social sciences. Furthermore, most of the discourses within the cited journals.
