This university textbook aims to fill the gap that exists in Greek-language literature regarding the comprehensive understanding of the curriculum, its relationship with research, and how this fuels and contributes to its development, as well as its relationship with programming, teaching, and assessment.
This edition highlights the richness, breadth, and depth of the field of study of curricula as primarily evident in foreign literature. It is a book that often refers to American literature, as not only is it where the author has had the greatest influences, but there is also a more significant reason.
The study of curricula as an academic field and the effort to interpret and understand them today, especially since the period of redefining curricula and thereafter, has been established in the American context, where it began to be ‘established’ as an academic field, studied systematically, and shaped a path with international influence.
The field of curricula helps us to understand its dimensions with a broader meaning now, rather than simply with that of design, a perception of curricula that prevailed for some, but also for several, decades.
