Knowledge and the Future of the Curriculum : International Studies in Social Realism PDF
Edited by B. Barrett, E. Rata
Part of the Palgrave Studies in Excellence and Equity in Global Education series
Description
Knowledge and the Future of the Curriculum: International Studies in Social Realism is about the central purpose of schooling - to provide students with equitable access to powerful curriculum knowledge that is ultimately capable of taking them beyond their experiences.
This collection presents a social realist understanding of the role of knowledge as a progressive option in support of social and educational justice.
It moves beyond mere critique by offering a rationale for determining what should be taught and how it should be taught.
It is an account justified by a theory of knowledge that acknowledges both its social location and its emergent and objective properties.
Each chapter argues in creative and innovative ways for a curriculum and pedagogy that will enable all students to access powerful knowledge.
