CSS 500 - Curriculum Paradigms and Issues


This course explores different curriculum paradigms and frameworks, and the particular issues related to those paradigms. Throughout the course, particular attention will be focused on two areas. The first relates to an analysis of the conceptual frameworks, principles, and modes of inquiry of different disciplines. The second concerns an investigation of past and present issues of teaching and learning, such as assessment, core curriculum, grouping practices, and conceptions of cognition for the purpose of examining their relationship to curriculum frameworks.
