Synopsis
This comprehensive book explores the day-to-day problems school teachers and administrators encounter in the area of curriculum, instruction and evaluation. Developing curriculum is a political as well as an educational activity and practitioners should be aware of hidden' political realities and value systems at work in their schools. In this book, the author proposes that there are three forms of curricula: formal, informal and hidden, with manifestations of these forms in the written, taught and tested curricula. English shows how these elements are brought together in developing curriculum.
