Description

The largest specialization in faculties of education in Canada is curriculum studies.

Curriculum Studies in Canada represents the present preoccupations of curriculum scholars in Canada.

Set against the backdrop of the COVID-19 pandemic, contributors engage with significant themes, among them ongoing efforts at justice for Indigenous Peoples, the continuing arrival of immigrants and refugees, Canada’s complex relationship to the United States, and issues related to the climate crisis. Addressing such realities through the field of curriculum studies and the school curriculum is critical at this historical conjuncture given the complex and shifting intersections of local and global dynamics restricting education.

To this end, contributing scholars serve as intellectual activists to address the critical need for understanding curriculum responsive to the vexed relations among schools, nation-building, social reconstruction, and identity development.

Their activism yields more sophisticated understandings of what it means to be educated in Canada.

Contributors trace the legacy of their work and reflect on their present scholarly preoccupations in light of their past endeavours.

In doing so, Curriculum Studies in Canada offers an invitation to readers: to study, remember, dialogue, and navigate an uncertain world with them.
