Teachers' Perceptions of Factors Influencing the Curriculum.
Doherty, Jim; Travers, Margaret
Educational Studies, v10 n3 p195-208 1984
When asked how much freedom they had in determining course content, elementary and secondary teachers in England responded that they didn't have total freedom, nor were they totally restrained. They felt that this was how things should be. The most important factor influencing curricula is aid provided by external professional groups. (Author/RM)
