Miguel-Revilla, Diego – Journal of Curriculum Studies, 2022
Secondary education students do not usually perceive history as a subject connected with their lives, backgrounds and interests. At the same time, prospective and in-service teachers do not always have a coherent vision of this discipline, which can reflect on their students' perceptions. This study makes use of a theoretical framework developed…

Ares, Nancy; Cochell, Laura – Journal of Curriculum Studies, 2022

We highlight Freedom Schools as one such ongoing but under-studied movement that precedes and contributes to recent,…

Adams, Erin – Journal of Curriculum Studies, 2022
This article describes a study wherein teachers talked about school architecture by using their bodies as well as their voices while analysing maps youth drew of their schools. The youths' maps and the teachers' discussions revealed evidence of their tacit understanding of panoptic surveillance. This may be evocative of the ways panoptic…

Calleja, James; Buhagiar, Michael A. – Journal of Curriculum Studies, 2022
This paper explores students' resistance when they were expected by their teacher to start learning mathematics through investigations, a pedagogy that emphasizes an active and agentic approach to learning in contrast to the traditional transmission-based teaching to which they were accustomed. This resistance is investigated from the perspectives…

As a result of international neoliberal and neoconservative trends, the status of the arts has been devalued in secondary school curricula. This paper examines why the arts are not considered core educational knowledge in pedagogic discourse arising from the New Right policy agenda. In a case study analysis of Swedish educational policy debates,…

Hilt, Line; Riese, Hanne – Journal of Curriculum Studies, 2022
Some might fear that the local flavours of education will evaporate when encountering the hegemony of global, cognitive standards of the knowledge economy. This paper, however, shows that the evolution of curriculum can emerge in surprising directions, creating hybrid forms of education. We will investigate forms of meaning that emerge in…

A count of word frequency says something about how popular…

Erickson, Joy Dangora; Thompson, Winston C. – Journal of Curriculum Studies, 2022
This article emerges from a stream of scholarship demonstrating the inadequacy of broad arguments favouring 'neutrality' as an alternative to 'directive normative instruction' in the early childhood classroom. We advance a moral educational framing of the tension between neutrality and normativity in education: specifically, we argue that…

Previous work has not yet comparatively studied which forms of peace education (PE) have been adopted in national laws.
