Exemplars of Curriculum Theory by Arthur K Ellis

Exemplars of Curriculum Theory by Arthur K Ellis

This book crosses the divide between theoreticians and practitioners by demonstrating how curriculum theories and models are applied in classrooms today. It ties together broad educational theories such as progressivism, essentialism, perennialism, etc.; curriculum models, characterized as learner-centered, society-centered or knowledge-centered; and exemplars of curriculum theories and models, such as Reggio Emilia, Core Knowledge, the International Baccalaureate, etc.

Arthur K. Ellis, a former public school teacher, is Director of the International Center for Curriculum Studies and Professor of Education at Seattle Pacific University. He is the author of the highly acclaimed Teaching and Learning Elementary Social Studies, Seventh Edition (Allyn and Bacon), Research on Educational Innovations, Third Edition and Teaching, Learning, and Assessment Together (both Eye On Education). Dr. Ellis is the author or coauthor of 18 published books and numerous journal articles. He consults to school systems in the United States and is involved in a wide range of professional activities in Russia, China, Spain, and other countries.
