4th Biennial Provoking Curriculum Studies Conference
An Uncommon Countenance: Provoking Past, Present, and Future Perspectives within Canadian Curriculum Studies
Conference background
The Provoking Curriculum Studies Conference provides a key occasion for complicated conversation regarding the content, context, and process of education, the organizational and intellectual center of which is the curriculum.
The Provoking Curriculum Studies Conference encourages experimental presentations that enable understanding of uniquely Canadian curricular issues. As curriculum theorists committed to educating the public in this current era of social, technological, environmental and curricular globalization, how might we then locate such understanding within the field of Canadian Curriculum Studies ? Focusing, on the significance of curriculum history to understanding Canadian curriculum in the present and imagining curriculum in the future, our conference is An Uncommon Countenance: Provoking Historical, Present, and Future Perspectives within Canadian Curriculum Studies .
Who should participate
Professors, graduate students, teachers, and community leaders wanting to provoke historical, present, and future perspectives within the field of Canadian Curriculum Studies are encouraged to participate.
