Domains of Curriculum Studies
Domains of Curriculum Studies
Curriculum studies is a single name for eight related fields of work. Each domain asks a different question: what is the thinking behind a curriculum, where did its ideas come from, how is one built, designed, delivered, judged, changed, and investigated? This chapter opens with an article that lists all eight, then gives each domain its own article.
