A CHOICE Outstanding Academic Title 2012!Critical Curriculum Studies offers a novel framework for thinking about how curriculum relates to students’ understanding of the world around them.
Wayne Au brings together curriculum theory, critical educational studies, and feminist standpoint theory with practical examples of teaching for social justice to argue for a transformative curriculum that challenges existing inequity in social, educational, and economic relations.
