- Title
ON THE STATE OF CURRICULUM STUDIES.
- Authors
Connelly, F. Michael; Xu, Shijing
- Abstract
Curriculum, teaching, and learning are widely discussed publicly and are crucial considerations in cultural exchanges throughout the world. But curriculum studies in the United States is not an important source of ideas and influence on these matters. Possible reasons giving rise to this situation, and ways of rethinking aspects of curriculum studies to regain a voice for curriculum scholarship, are discussed. Our method for bringing forward relevant matters is to use the senior authors' career pattern of inquiry to construct a narrative of the relationships of theory and practice in curriculum studies. We offer the thought that curriculum studies might profit from more carefully attending to links between theory and practice in its practically oriented subfields: in the curriculum subject matters, topics, and preoccupations.
