Curriculum Studies

Curriculum Studies as a research field and field of knowledge deals with issues of educational content. It has deep roots in both scientific traditions and teaching practices and covers the issues in the intersection of a specific field of knowledge and teaching, learning and socialisation within this field of knowledge.
What is studied, therefore, is the purpose of education, what teaching contains and what makes this selection of content legitimate, who the teaching concerns and how their learning takes place, how the subject matter should be handled in teaching and who has the power in the selection processes.
