Readings

The readings listed below provide a framework for the presentations and discussion board questions. They were carefully selected to be informative, relevant and user-friendly. As good preparation for the session's activities, read all assigned book chapters first before working on course activities. Resources will either be linked below, in your textbook or located in the E-Reserves.

Overview:

The readings provide thoughtful publications on HP curriculum issues as well as an overview and examples of the 6 Step Approach to curriculum development (Thomas, et al). Aoki’s chart provides the foundational philosophies underpinning curriculum development which you will need to read in preparation for completing Assignment 1. As you read the following chapters and articles, think about possible applications to your work in curriculum development. Focus on the relevant components of each reading since they may not always related to the topics covered.
