Opis

Covering each of the core curriculum areas in turn, this is a reference on school subject teaching. The authors assess the development of teaching within each subject area since the 1944 Education Act up to the year 2000. In doing so they provide a history of teaching in these fields and a critical assessment of the factors that drive curriculum development, the challenges facing the subjects and the way forward. Each chapter concentrates on curriculum development, research, the subject community, teacher education in that subject, the international context and future challenges.
