The Social Construction of the Local School Curriculum: Patterns of Diversity and Uniformity in Israeli Junior High Schools.
Benavot, Aaron; Resh, Nura
Comparative Education Review, v45 n4 p504-36 Nov 2001
A study of school curricula in a nationally representative sample of 104 Israeli junior high schools (grades 7-9) found wide variety in local implementation of the official curriculum and in the time allocated to various subjects. Three general sociological approaches to explaining the findings focus on organizational "failure," intentional school autonomy, and the institutional status of different subjects. (SV)
