The intention of this book is to engage educators in transforming
the public school curriculum for a culturally diverse society. This
means more than including knowledge about diverse populations. It
means reconceptualizing school practices through debate,
deliberation, and collaboration involving the diverse voices that
comprise the nation. Certain key questions must be addressed in
this process: What should be the purpose of schooling in a
culturally diverse society? Who should be involved in curriculum
planning and what process should be employed? How is the actualized
curriculum differentiated? What is the relationship between school
practices and the structure of the larger society? How should the
curriculum be evaluated? The authors of the essays in this book
address critical perspectives from which a framework is constructed
for a discourse on planning curriculum for a culturally diverse
society. In a substantive introduction, Hollins presents the major
themes and overall goals of the book and describes how the readings
in each of the four parts are linked to each other and to these
themes and goals. Each part begins with critical questions and an
overview to provide a framework and a focus for the readings that
follow, and concludes with suggested learning experiences.
