Curriculum
"A detailed analysis of the history of curriculum development in Britain shows the interplay between a kaleidoscopic pattern of pressure groups. Their activities demonstrate the different underlying philosophies and ambitions each had for the nature of schooling. The interaction of these philosophies is demonstrated as a series of alliances and conflicts, and will be particularly useful both to those seeking to understand debates about the current curriculum and to those interested in recent curriculum development and history."--Jacket.

This book will be of interest to students of education, as well as educators themselves.
Theory and Practice of Curriculum Studies
This book deals with curriculum issues and problems, and one of its aims is to help practising teachers to clarify their own theory and practice in relation to the curriculum. The contributors look at three popular theories or sets of assumptions held by teachers: the child-centred view of education; the subject-centred or knowledge-centred view; and the society-centred view. Each of these views is incomplete on its own, but each has something to contribute in planning a curriculum as a whole, and the authors emphasize that a comprehensive theory of curriculum planning would take into account the individual nature of the pupil and also recognize the social value of education. This kind of co...
