Even though the curriculum can be tightly specified and controlled
by strong accountability mechanisms, it is teachers who decisively
shape the educational experiences of children and young people at
school. Bringing together seminal papers from the Cambridge Journal
of Education around the theme of curriculum and the teacher, this
book explores the changing conceptions of curriculum and teaching
and the changing role of the teacher in curriculum development and
delivery. The book is organised around three major themes: Taking
its lead from Lawrence Stenhouse, Part One looks at 'defining the
curriculum problem' from a variety of perspectives and includes
papers from some of the most influential curriculum theorists over
the last thirty years. Part Two explores the framing of new orders
of educational experience. It has papers from leading educational
thinkers who have contributed to debates about how to make
education more inclusive, humane, liberating, creative and
educational. Part Three is focused on teachers and teaching. It
offers a selection of papers from significant scholars in the field
reflecting on the experience of teaching and how it is personally
as well as socially constructed and theorised. The papers are drawn
from important and eventful periods of educational history spanning
the curriculum reform movement of the 1960s and 1970s to the
present age of surveillance, accountability and control. A
specially written Introduction contextualises the papers. Part of
the Routledge Education Heritage series, Curriculum and the Teacher
presents landmark texts from the Cambridge Journal of Education,
offering a wealth of material for students and researchers in
education.
