Curriculum Theory and the Question of Knowledge: A Response to the Six Papers
Young, Michael
Journal of Curriculum Studies, v47 n6 p820-837 2015
In this paper, following some brief introductory remarks, I provide a context to this Symposium by presenting a brief autobiographical account explaining how I became involved in curriculum theory and the idea of a knowledge-led curriculum and how I was led to write the paper under discussion. I then make brief comments on each of the six papers individually, concluding with some thoughts about the implications of the collection of papers as a whole for the future of curriculum theory.
