Curriculum introduces readers to curriculum theory and practice. Wesley Null provides a unique organization of the curriculum field into five traditions: systematic, existential, radical, pragmatic, and deliberative. He discusses the philosophical and historical foundations as well as the historical and contemporary figures who have shaped each curriculum tradition. Additionally, he presents case studies that provide the opportunity for scholars and practitioners to resolve curriculum problems through deliberation.
