Authored by Wesley Null, the book delves into the philosophical foundations of curriculum, explores historical and contemporary figures who have shaped different curriculum traditions, and provides a unique organization of the curriculum into five traditions: systematic, existential, radical, pragmatic, and deliberative.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTo ensure a broad and comprehensive understanding of curriculum, Null has expanded this third edition to include figures not present in previous editions. He also addresses rapid changes in democratic society and charts a path toward inclusion and wise decision-making. Additionally, the book includes case studies that describe realistic and specific curriculum problems that commonly arise within educational institutions at all levels. These case studies provide scholars and practitioners with opportunities to practice resolving curriculum problems through deliberation, a critical skill in today's educational landscape.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach case study focuses on a critical issue such as the implementation of curriculum standards, the attempt to reform core curriculum within universities, and the complex practice of curriculum making. By examining these issues through the lens of curriculum deliberation, readers gain a deeper understanding of the complexities and challenges involved in curriculum development and implementation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the final chapter, Null offers a vision for the curriculum field that connects curriculum deliberation with recent developments in moral philosophy. He advocates for a curriculum that promotes empathy, critical thinking, and social responsibility, and that fosters the development of lifelong learners who are capable of addressing the complex challenges of our world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOverall, Curriculum: From Theory to Practice, Third Edition is an essential resource for scholars, educators, and policymakers interested in understanding and improving curriculum theory and practice. With its comprehensive coverage, practical insights, and visionary approach, the book provides a valuable contribution to the field of education.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 454g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 254 x 178 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781538168783\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: Third Edition\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wesley Null","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44201325723898,"sku":"9781538168783","price":84.79,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1682679331932_book.jpg?v=1682792866","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/curriculum-from-theory-to-practice-9781538168783","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
