This paper is a critical discussion about how the curriculum contributes to the sense of belonginess within Higher Education (HE), and how the ongoing aim of decolonisation needs to incorporate a more consistent intersectional lens with the curriculum within psychology. Psychology as a discipline has been criticised for its focus on primarily…

Background: The notion of carry-over value of certain physical activities has long been a preoccupation for physical education (PE) curriculum planners, one goal of PE being to prepare students for an active lifestyle in their adulthood.

Choreography classes rooted only in modern/post-modern/contemporary dance (hereafter referred to as contemporary dance ), fail to provide racial equity to today's college students. Dancers with backgrounds in forms other than contemporary dance such as hip-hop, salsa, kathak, etc., must learn a new set of movement principles and aesthetic values…

There is a wide range of activity taking place under the banner of 'co-created curriculum' within higher education. Some of this variety is due to the different ways people think about 'co-creation', but significant variation is also due to the ways in which higher education curriculum is conceptualised, and how these conceptualisations position…

The to-be-expected and lingering dialectics of the current curricular landscape confirm that the steady growth in Spanish for the Professions and Specific Purposes (SPSP), supported by a growing number of colleagues in US higher and secondary education has also been characterized by a stubborn resistance on the part of others, as SPSP moves in…
