Synopsis

As a primary text, this book provides the backbone for a basic curriculum course at either graduate or undergraduate level. It attempts to teach how the parts of a curriculum fit together, and how to identify assumptions underlying curricula. In this way students develop the ability to determine why a curriculum proves better for some than for others; what approaches to teaching are compatible with a particular curriculum; what difficulties a curriculum is likely to encounter during implementtationn; and what kinds of changes in the curriculum parents, students and administrators are likely to demand. These are important skills for evaluating, selecting and adapting existing programmes to suit particular situations.
