Curriculum on the Edge of Survival

Focusing on the fundamental purpose of education, Daniel Heller argues that public education is deteriorating due to neglect of essential curricular dimensions. Rather than offering procedural guidance, this book emphasizes the 'what' and 'why' of education, exploring the critical role schools play in a democratic society. Heller seeks to address the vital questions surrounding curriculum development and the implications of these answers for preparing students as engaged citizens in a rapidly evolving world.
