β¦ Synopsis
In this sixth edition of David J. Flinders and Stephen J. Thorntonβs ground-breaking anthology, the editors assemble the best in past and present curriculum studies scholarship. From John Deweyβs nineteenth-century creed to Nel Noddingsβ provocative call to revive the spirit of the liberal arts, this thoughtful combination of well-recognized and pivotal work provides a complete survey of the discipline, coupled with concrete examples of innovative curriculum and an examination of current topics. New to this edition is a dynamic set of contemporary and historical contributions tackling issues such as high-stakes testing, multicultural literacy, white supremacy in the curriculum, and climate change.
Carefully balanced to engage with the history of curriculum studies while simultaneously looking ahead to its future,γThe Curriculum Studies Readerγcontinues to be the most authoritative collection in the field.
