This collection of articles from ASCD's Curriculum Update newsletter brings together some of the most thought-provoking pieces about the evolving K-12 curriculum in the 1990s, from the call to provide students with "authentic" learning experiences to the efforts to define and apply clear standards for both content and performance. The editors have organized the articles into seven sections: language arts, mathematics, social studies, science, the arts, world languages, and health and physical education.

For anyone taking on the challenge of curriculum renewal--whether at the classroom, school, district, or state level--these articles provide background information and plenty of practical ideas for pursuing the elusive goal of a "state-of-the-art" curriculum.
