Transformative Curriculum Leadership provides concrete guidance on how to practice a curriculum based on problem solving that integrates constructivist learning with democratic understanding. The book is organized around the leadership experiences of the assistant superintendent, and it contains a wealth of guiding rubrics, figures, images, and illustrations. In addition to providing well-integrated, step-by-step problem solving guidance, it remains a theoretically sophisticated, cutting-edge integration of curriculum theory and leadership practice.
An authoritative new curriculum text that introduces future teachers and administrators to an exciting new alternative curriculum approach! Steering away from the prevailing curriculum model, one directed at ensuring compliance with predetermined goals, this text explores the concept of "bottom up" curriculum, presenting a systematic program for supporting constructivist teaching practices...the kind of practices that are at the heart of curriculum reform agendas in all major subject areas.
