College and University Curriculum: Developing and Cultivating Programs of Study that Enhance Student Learning

by Jennifer Grant Haworth, Lisa R. Lattuca

This volume is designed to serve both as a curriculum text and instructional text — to engage instructors, students, and others in critical reflection and dialogue about curricular, teaching and learning, and assessment issues in higher education. The selected articles also represent theoretical and applied concerns and challenge readers to bridge those concerns by discovering and enacting myriad intersections of theory and practice. The organizing concept behind this volume is that of the academic plan that states, whether intentionally or not, every curriculum includes eight interacting purpose, content, sequence or arrangement of subject matter, learners, instructional process, instructional resources, evaluation strategies, and adjustments (or changes to the plan).
