Curriculum Planning: A Contemporary Approach - Softcover

Reseña del editor

The seventh edition of Curriculum Planning is a "readings text" that presents the knowledge, skills, and alternative strategies needed by curriculum planners and teachers at all levels of education, from early childhood through adulthood. The book offers a variety of learning experiences for students with wide-ranging interests, learning styles, and backgrounds. The first six chapters emphasize the development of knowledge and skills in the four bases of the curriculum - social forces, human development, learning, and knowledge and cognition. The last four chapters emphasize the application of curriculum planning skills in educational programs for children; early, middle, and late adolescents; and adult and senior learners. At all levels, current issues, innovations, and trends are examined from both theoretical and practical viewpoints.
