Focusing on the teacher's role in creating curriculum, this practical yet theoretical text is unique in putting teachers in touch with postmodernist ideas and helping them see the implications of these ideas for their own practice. It is designed to engage readers in answering curriculum questions about purpose, method, and organization. Teachers and prospective teachers, in curriculum and curriculum development courses for K-12, will find the book stimulating, practical, interactive, and well balanced between social issues and the need for individual creativity.
