Everything for graduate study in one small book,
By A Customer
This review is from: Curriculum Essentials: A Resource for Educators (Paperback)
Curriculum Essentials is a compact paperback that contains of the "right stuff" for graduate study in curriculum and instruction. It also would serve as the sole resource for school personnel. Included are annotated bibliograhies, models, program summaries, important dates etc. There also is a very sound treatment of the curriculum development process including how change can be promoted in a number of program areas
