I grew up … Continue reading Blog Post #10: Curriculum as Numeracy
Blog Post #9: Reading the World

Blog Post #2: Tyler Rationale
The Tyler Rationale is still used in our school curriculum even though it is outdated. It uses a system that, on paper, makes a lot of sense but is not practical for today's school system. While it does have variation depending on the society it is implemented in, the Tyler Rationale was created to shape … Continue reading Blog Post #2: Tyler Rationale
