Curriculum isn't the most interesting thing to read about, but I did like how this book was filled with articles by so many different authors, researchers, and "gurus" to get a variety of experiences and perspectives。 Curriculum isn't the most interesting thing to read about, but I did like how this book was filled with articles by so many different authors, researchers, and "gurus" to get a variety of experiences and perspectives。 。。。more

It's a far better book than Curriculum 21。 It compiles a very expansive collection of essays and papers written/published about the constructing of curriculum that span a wide array of viewpoints。 This makes one appreciate more the complexity and subjectivity inherent in the process unlike Curriculum 21's more rigidly didactic approach。 It's a far better book than Curriculum 21。 It compiles a very expansive collection of essays and papers written/published about the constructing of curriculum that span a wide array of viewpoints。 This makes one appreciate more the complexity and subjectivity inherent in the process unlike Curriculum 21's more rigidly didactic approach。 。。。more

This book is designed in an interesting way, each chapter with a short editor blurb about various curriculum topics, followed by a handful of short articles from different authors about the topic。 In this way, this book allowed me to read many diverse viewpoints about a certain topic。 I would argue that the book isn't so much a book about curriculum, or leadership, and that is why I'm not giving it 5 stars。 There are chapters about human development and middle level education, for example。 While This book is designed in an interesting way, each chapter with a short editor blurb about various curriculum topics, followed by a handful of short articles from different authors about the topic。 In this way, this book allowed me to read many diverse viewpoints about a certain topic。 I would argue that the book isn't so much a book about curriculum, or leadership, and that is why I'm not giving it 5 stars。 There are chapters about human development and middle level education, for example。 While these are certainly related to curricula, I found that the articles included in each chapter didn't strictly relate to curriculum。Nevertheless, a good read with diverse viewpoints about important education topics。 。。。more

Although the chapter introductions can be a bit dense, there is a solid compilation of journal articles about education and leadership in this textbook。 It is a collection that I'm actually looking forward to continuing to explore even though my course is officially over。 Although the chapter introductions can be a bit dense, there is a solid compilation of journal articles about education and leadership in this textbook。 It is a collection that I'm actually looking forward to continuing to explore even though my course is officially over。 。。。more
