The Elements of Education for Curriculum Designers

Rezensionen / Stimmen

"The Elements of Education for Curriculum Designers by Strauss, Volz, and Lidwell is a new dictionary of curriculum design. Understanding the nuances of curriculum design can play a critical role in both teaching and learning. This book is a simple and useful tool that provides readers with easy-to-digest one-liner definitions and Do's and Don'ts that will help build an understanding of the multitudes of elements that exist in the development of curriculum."

- Dr. Lizabeth Fogel, Vice President Learning, Strategy, and Development, DoGoodery

"As an instructional designer, I always believed the old adage that distinguished 'what is taught' (curriculum) from 'how it is taught' (instruction) oversimplified the design of learning strategies and experiences. This book presents the intricacies of curriculum design in a way that recognizes the necessary blending of many elements to accomplish effective designs for learning."

- Wayne A. Nelson, Professor Emeritus, Southern Illinois University Edwardsville, U.S.A.

"As the authors themselves note 'in a world characterized by unprecedented complexity and accelerating change, the work of designing effective learning experiences has never been more urgent.' This book is timely, engaging and thought provoking, and will be read with interest and profit by anyone and everyone with an interest in curriculum design."

- Professor Kendall A. King, Department of Curriculum and Instruction, University of Minnesota, U.S.A.
