Miguel-Revilla, Diego – Journal of Curriculum Studies, 2022

Van Steenbrugge, H.; Lesage, E.; Valcke, M.; Desoete, A. – Journal of Curriculum Studies, 2014
This research analyses preservice teachers' knowledge of fractions. Fractions are notoriously difficult for students to learn and for teachers to teach. Previous studies suggest that student learning of fractions may be limited by teacher understanding of fractions. If so, teacher education has a key role in solving the problem. We first reviewed…

Nationalizing the Post-National: Reframing European Citizenship for the Civics Curriculum in Ireland
Keating, Avril – Journal of Curriculum Studies, 2009
The EU and other European institutions have launched a wide range of educational initiatives over the past 50 years in order to foster European citizenship and bring Europe "closer to the people".
