Book Review on “Curriculum from Theory to Practice” of Wesley Null

Among the useful articles is the one by Wesley Null titled as “Curriculum from Theory to Practice.” It categorizes the curriculum into six parts traditions, systematic, existential, radical, pragmatic and deliberative. The strategies presented by Null are useful for educators, policymakers and researchers pointing out how to design efficient education experiences. It has added new figures to the text and focuses on the changes in the characteristics of current democracy, which makes the book more suitable for curriculum development and enactment. Null removes the curtain from the curriculum theory, explains different models, and provides directions for practice. Nevertheless, it can be less culturally sensitive and may not pay enough attention to equity, diversity, and social justice. In conclusion, the book by Null is relevant to education, as it offers rich information about curriculum development and its application.

Abstract

Among the useful articles is the one by Wesley Null titled as “Curriculum from Theory to Practice.” It categorizes the curriculum into six parts traditions, systematic, existential, radical, pragmatic and deliberative. The strategies presented by Null are useful for educators, policymakers and researchers pointing out how to design efficient education experiences. It has added new figures to the text and focuses on the changes in the characteristics of current democracy, which makes the book more suitable for curriculum development and enactment. Null removes the curtain from the curriculum theory, explains different models, and provides directions for practice. Nevertheless, it can be less culturally sensitive and may not pay enough attention to equity, diversity, and social justice. In conclusion, the book by Null is relevant to education, as it offers rich information about curriculum development and its application.
