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 awealth of material for students and
researchers in education.
