Change and the Curriculum

  • Publisher: SAGE

Through the work of the Schools Council and other national agencies, the difficulties of achieving effective curriculum change through centralized initiatives and directives have been well documented. At the same time the importance of teacher involvement in such activities, and the advantages of curriculum development over revolutionary innovation, have become plain. This knowledge and the understandings it has generated are important today, when unusually sweeping changes are being brought about in the school curriculum. The authors of this book draw together these ideas to assist people promoting curriculum changes, as well as those on the receiving end of such projects.

Over the past 15 years, there has been a pronounced trend toward a particular type of picturebook that many would label "postmodern." Postmodern picturebooks have stretched our conventional notion of what constitutes a picturebook, as well as what it means to be an engaged reader of these texts. The international researchers and scholars included in this compelling collection of work critically examine and discuss postmodern picturebooks, and reflect upon their unique contributions to both the field of children’s literature and to the development of new literacies for child, adolescent, and adult readers.

The Primary Curriculum

  • Type: Book

  • Publisher: Unknown

As a result of the influence of learner-centred theories of education and the work of developmental psychologists, a distinctive form of curriculum has emerged which has come to be associated with English primary education. The form of recent demands for greater public accountability of teachers and the monitoring of "standards" threatens the continued development of this approach. The authors believe that the essential elements of this kind of curriculum should be carefully examined, so that a proper appraisal can be made of the choices open to educationalists in planning primary education, and proper forms of evaluation. This book explores the theoretical bases of this approach. By analysing the underlying principles of recent developments in the primary phase of schooling - especially those resulting from political initiatives - the book attempts to reveal both these essential elements and the constraints upon their continuing development.
