Achieving QTLS Series
Key Features
- Explains complex issues in clear and accessible language
- Relates to a core component of most QTLS programs
- Authentic case studies from a range of contexts
- Promotes critical reflection on debates surrounding the curriculum
This book explores different models in an easy to understand way. I like that the 'hidden curriculum' has been included. The practical and reflective tasks can be used during class discussions. This book will help our DTLLS students understand more about how a curriculum is defined.
This text is particularly useful for the Curriculum Development Module of Year 2 DTLLS. It is very readable and for those less academic trainees provides some quite complex ideas in an accessible way.
