Curriculum Studies - the Next Moment

In the mid-1970s a shift in the intellectual work of the field of curriculum studies gave birth to a movement now commonly referred to as reconceptualization. The intellectual efforts taken up under reconceptualization advanced the field from curriculum development (with a focus on objectives, scope, sequence, and evaluation) toward curriculum understanding (with a focus on the individual experience of the public as the primary focus of teaching and learning). This text addresses what is comes after the reconceptualization of curriculum studies and considers the contribution of the next wave of curriculum scholars. It speaks to these questions through the work of 25 newer scholars who explore, each in their own their own unique ways, the present moment in curriculum studies. To contextualize the work of this up-and-coming generation, each chapter is paired with a shorter response authored by a well-known scholar in the field.Malewski, Erik is the author of 'Curriculum Studies - the Next Moment', published 2009 under ISBN 9780415989497 and ISBN 0415989493.
