Week 1 Discussion 1 - Perspectives on Four Curriculum TraditionsAfter completing this week's Readings and Resources, respond to the following questions:As you consider William Schubert's "Perspectives
As you consider William Schubert's "Perspectives on Four Curriculum Traditions" from the authors of your text, which curriculum orientation is most compatible with your views?
Social Behavior makes learning for this generation relevant. This generation of students need to know the "why"behind why we have to do an assignment, project or reading assignment. As a teacher who was raised by the "because I said so" generation it is hard to not fall in that realm of teaching at times. The Social behavior curriculum also allows this generation of learners to learn in a way that is easiest for them.
Which one is least compatible?
Traditional Intellect is the category of teaching that I fall into only because I was raised by the "because I said so" generation. I would not use this curriculum in my school simply because students would not be able to appreciate the traditions of reading older text or the traditional styles of learning.
Which one would you be inclined to implement when you become the new school executive?
As an outside the box type of teacher I would definitely want to implement the Social Behavior curriculum due to wanting students to have an urgency for learning as well as wanting students to enjoy coming to school everyday because they will not know what to expect next with their teachers or the outcomes of their own learning.
