Beskrivning

Curriculum Theory, History, and Applications for Education serves as a comprehensive guide to curriculum history, theory, and contemporary curriculum applications, offering essential context for modern curriculum theories and courses. This textbook begins with a concise history of twentieth-century curriculum ideology and development, offering essential context for modern curriculum theories and schooling. It then explores fifteen curriculum ideologies, over ten chapters, and examines their goals, intended outcomes, limitations, and consequences in educational contexts. In the final “Applications” section, readers will engage with interpretive curriculum frameworks – influenced by theorists such as Doll, Huebner, Cherryholmes, and Kincheloe – and learn how to apply and implement the ideologies, epistemologies, and theories in the classroom. This valuable resource helps readers understand curriculum ideological inheritances, the ways in which curriculum shapes schooling, and offers modern alternative ideologies and theories to transform school or district curricula from deficit-based to asset-based or student-centered approaches. Combining theory with practice, this textbook will be essential reading for graduate students and advanced undergraduate students in curriculum studies, curriculum theory, foundations of education, education policy, history of education, and philosophy of education courses.
