Description
This second edition of Un-Standardizing Curriculum offers guidance for educators seeking to create rich, multicultural curricula within a standards-based environment. Christine Sleeter and Judith Flores Carmona have updated their field-tested conceptual framework to address current changes in education policy and practice.
The book provides classroom vignettes to illustrate how teachers can navigate the Common Core State Standards while "un-standardizing" knowledge in their own classrooms. It also offers practical advice for developing classroom practice, including exploring possibilities within a standardized curriculum.
With attention to multiple subject areas and levels of schooling, this book is applicable across a wide range of teacher education programs. A critique of the tensions between school reforms and progressive classroom practice adds depth to the discussion.
